Hello. It is working as intended. I don't personally agree with how it works, but...
When the SWFObject is actually embedded it does replace the div named in your code, and the css associated with that DOM node disappears. The recommended approach to deal with this is to create a container div around your SWFObject div and apply the styles there. Presuming you have control over the naming convention and the css file, this shouldn't be hard to resolve.
