Comment 8 for bug 2051504

Here's some of what I see:

When I log in fresh after a reboot (Budgie), this pops up in the logs:

Jan 29 13:08:17 hydra pipewire-pulse[2736]: default: snap_get_audio_permissions: failed to get the AppArmor info.

Firing up 'sudo journalctl -o cat -f in a terminal' as requested, then launching Firefox Nightly (ubuntu-mozilla-daily PPA) and trying to play a video from YouTube shows the following:

Attempting to watch YouTube in Chrome (to rule out Firefox) gives the following:

wpctl status shows my audio devices correctly. Default sink and source are correct.

pavucontrol shows "No output devices available" and "No input devices available".
