Above is what I am trying to play which doesn't play. No sound but says it is loading, buffering then playing, starts to play sound then goes silent as it is saying it's playing. Plus now some pictures are not showing on some web pages.

Thanks

Dave G

as a workaround you can try to run killall pulseaudio and then restart firefox. remember that you might not be able to have two sound apps running at the sametime when using this workaround.
