You should check your power settings and make sure you have the newest release of Firefox. I attemped to repeat this bug and was not able. This is not so much a bug but is the normal function of your sleep settings in Ubuntu. I have watched many flash videos in firefox and the power did not turn off for me, so I understand your frustration. If you continue to have the problem why not use appport so you can give a dump so we can better help you solve this problem.
