It isn't just firefox. I have tried other browsers and the videos won't play. This issue is with facebook only not youtube.

Thanks for all those updates.

I've filed the bug in the early days of 10.10 upgrade. and the first update was after 4 months. I've found other alternatives and currently there is no need for me to work on this.
