You can try to replace the icedtea plugin with the one from Oracle.
As i wrote in my first mail. Try to locate the plugin folder of your
firefox installation (maybe in your ff profile or system wide in the
firefox folder), backup the old plugin and place there a symlink to the
oracle plugin (/usr/java/jre1.8.0_144/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so).
