Problems with mplayerplug-in

Hello,

I installed mplayerplug-in, and it works, though I have two questions about it.

First, when I click on link to a sound file, such as links on
http://www.frenchtutorial.com/standard/pronunciation/en.php or even
http://fredrik.hubbe.net/plugger/menu.html?f=test.wav
the file is played twice, not once, as expected.

Second, when I click on a link to a sound file, a new page is opened
which contains an mplayer plugin logo on top some buttons (play,
pause, etc.) in the bottom. I have to click the Back button to return
to the original page. This is not what I usually want. For example,
when I am reading a page about French and I click on a sound file, I
want to keep the page and continue reading what is being said. Is it
possible to achieve this behavior?

I am using Firefox 2.0.0.3 on Fedora Core 6. The content of my
about:plugins page is below.

Thank you,
Yevgeniy
