Stabbing in the dark if you're referring to having no sound with HTML5
videos (a problem I encountered myself before upgrading to Wheezy) users
here have had success resolving various sound issues with 'pavucontrol'.

I personally have a little applet in Gnome3 that allowed me to fix the
problem easily and rapidly (directing the sound stream to the proper
output device as I have two--HDMI + sound card or analog sound chip or
whatever you call it).

Good luck with Jessica (that's rather nice; like her better than Jessie).

Open your browser to a youtube video and start playing it, while you 
have pavucontrol open. You should see the volume bar, on playback tab, 
twitch. If it doesn't twitch, chances are you have it muted. The volume 
level should be set to 100% and the proper output device selected. Once 
in awhile I have to open alsamixer from a terminal to reset volume 
levels. Why that happens I have no clue, but if alsa ain't right, pulse 
doesn't stand a chance.

Also, if you have HDMI audio controllers that you don't use, turn them 
to "off" under the configuration tab in pavucontrol, just so that aren't 
selected by accident. :) Ric
