How do I get the Linux version of Firefox to allow me to download mp3 files instead of playing them in Firefox (the windoze solution doesn't work for Linux)?
I've tried to modify a couple of "media" settings in about:config, but it still plays mp3s instead of allowing me to save them. In applications, mp3 audio is set to "Always ask".

Did this behavior change after an update, or has it continued for several Firefox versions?
Is there a visible player? If so, can you right-click it and see whether you get a plugin menu or a standard Firefox context menu?
For some plugins, there is a separate configuration dialog to indicate which kinds of content they will handle (I recall QuickTime having such a dialog).
