There's only one problem with playing attachments when using flash, and that is security related issues. It's very easy to setup and attach a redirect in flash. So you would need to be able trust your members 100%, or have permissions set in such a way so they could post attachments, but not show until they've been moderated by an administrator.
There is a new parameter been added in Flash player 9.0 ActiveX called 'allowNetworking' - but this doesn't stop a flash redirection for malicious purposes.
