Hi Anna, I've not migrated to Snow Leopard yet, but here are two thoughts: you might have to interact first on the page where the download started playing. In Cara's original post about controlling the play of streaming media in Leopard (early on) at:
http://www.lioncourt.com/guides-tutorials/keyboard-control-of-streaming-content-in-safari/ (Keyboard control of streaming media in Safari) you had to interact with the HTML area first, and even route your mouse cursor to your VoiceOver cursor with VO-Command-F5 before commands like pressing space to play/pause took effect. Secondly, at least under Leopard there is a VoiceOver Utility (VO-F8) option under the web pane to check or uncheck: Move VoiceOver cursor to a newly loaded web page checked check box You might need to play with a similar setting in Snow Leopard.
