Package: firefox Version: 53.0~b4-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
Audio playback has stopped to work in firefox-53.0~b4-2 when pulseaudio daemon is not installed. Firefox shows "To play audio, you may need to install the required PulseAudio software". This is a **regression ** since firefox-51. I carefully read upstream bug report [1]. I don't have pulseaudio daemon installed and I don't plan to. Please enable ALSA support for `firefox` package in order to provide the better user experience for Debian users. Thanks.
