No Audio in Firefox 3.6

[Christopher]

Binary package hint: firefox

After this morning's update to Firefox and PulseAudio, there is no sound in Firefox videos. Other applications are normal, as are system sounds.

I have both internal speakers and a USB powered Logitech AudioHub and neither will produce audio in Firefox.

It was playing though the internal speakers instead of the AudioHub after the updates, but after a restart there is no audio at all.

Just to be clear, it normally plays though the AudioHub and is still OK in Karmic.

Follow up - I used a Firefox addon to download one of the flash videos that has no sound. Using Totem to play it, the sound is fine.

Later updates to Asla and Pulse corrected this bug.

As of 2010-02-22, fully updated, Firefox 3.6 in Kubuntu Lucid still has no sound for me.

same for me with the latest updates on 2010-03-18.

I am experiencing this bug both in Firefox and Google Chrome. So it seems to be due to the flash player. As such, I marked it as a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/543035.
