| Subject | No sound in Firefox |
| Message-ID | <tnczf-1GM-1@gated-at.bofh.it> |
I recently upgraded my Firefox to v52 and immediately lost all sound in Firefox. Apparently Firefox now requires PulseAudio, which I had previously uninstalled due to issues which I no longer remember. I tried installing PulseAudio, but still no sound in Firefox. Also, no sound anywhere else. I uninstalled PulseAudio and sound came back (except for Firefox). I reverted Firefox to v51.0.1 and I have sound everywhere. I would like to reinstall PulseAudio so that I can upgrade Firefox, but I can't get it to work. Can anyone help me get sound working with PulseAudio? Marc

Not sure what the problem was, but after purging and reinstalling PulseAudio I now have sound that works in the latest Firefox. I still think that it would be better if this hard requirement did not exist, but at least it is working now. I just hope that whatever the problem was (years back) that caused me to purge PulseAudio in the first place has been fixed and does not come back to bite me. I think that I'll keep my copy of Firefox v51.0.1 around for a while, until I am sure that I don't need to revert to it. Marc
