Rikaichan: RevTK Community Edition

When I hit 'F' nothing happens (when I'm hovering over a kanji). The Rikaichan with Audio extension is properly installed in Firefox 3.6.10 on Windows 7. I'm using the Quicktime plugin. When I hit F, I see 'Waiting for assets.languagepod101.com' and then 'Done' in the status bar at the bottom of Firefox, but no sound plays.

I can successfully hear the audio for words if I manually copy in a URL into the Firefox address bar such as:
http://assets.languagepod101.com/diction...ょ&kanji=読書

Any ideas on what could be wrong?
Your not the only one. I think one of the later Firefox releases made this plugin less reliable than before. However, there is a workaround. I've noticed that if you "stimulate" a page, the sound will play. There are many ways to stimulate a page: click in Firefox's address box or search box, resize the window, switch IME language, click inside a text box, switch tabs, etc. Of course, the user shouldn't have to do any of that nonsense. Someday I'll look into creating proper fix to this problem.
