Exactly the same problem here. When I try to install icedtea6-plugin, it
installs pulseaudio dependencies in Kubuntu Jaunty 9.04 too.

In consequence every time that I install it, the flash videos come
soundless and if I play them anyway, they just crash.

After do: sudo apt-get remove icedtea6-plugin and then sudo apt-get
autoremove --purge, all dependencies get uninstalled without problems
and everything comeback to normality (I mean, I can watch flash videos
without crashing and with sound again).  I'm using the flash nonfree
plugin in firefox.

Maybe this can be another bug, but it is close related with the
pulseaudio dependencies tied to the java plugin. Since the distro don't
use Pulse Audio, is there a way to get rid of those dependencies just
for Kubuntu users?

Thank you!
