Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

http://en-us.www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.5.2/whatsnew/

Firefox came up with the above URL in one of its tabs. I clicked the video and I heard a few music beats, but it then stopped and wouldn't go any further. I tried dragging the progress bar, but that didn't help.

Thanks for testing this. I will report after I try again tonight.

Progress. The video now plays, but there is no audio. I can hear audio with totem and mplayer. I navigated FF to /usr/share/sounds and the builtin player appears to play .ogg files, (the progress bar moves) but there is no sound. I clicked on a .wav file and the totem browser plugin loaded and played it and I did hear audio.

I restarted FF visited this page then the What's New page and the audio played. I then clicked Back and FF crashed. :) I guess that's good enough so the bug can be closed.
