Hi all
As Ken noted, Firefox 58 seems to have some sound issues. I could not
confirm this on all my boxes, but found out that one box has the issue,
while the other has not. But are using alsa and the same, self-compiled
firefox 58b16.
A solution on the faulty machine is to start firefox, go to
about:config, and then set the property
security.sandbox.content.level
to 0, instead of 3.
I found a nice explanation for the problem at:
https://github.com/i-rinat/apulse
To leave sandboxing active and get alsa sound running, you can also set
security.sandbox.content.syscall_whitelist
to 16, which is the iotcl syscall needed by alsa. For 32bit
architectures, the value is 54.
Cheers
Tim
