what you are describing sounds like a load and not streaming. streaming is when something like fms or red5 comes into play, but downloading it via http://lala.com/lala.mp3, yes it should cache depending on how you query it (a query string will cause some issues with using the cached version if the querystring changes) but otherwise the browser should serve from the cache. its not flash caching its the host of the active x control.
