Hi doctor... ;-) I had the same problem on Ubuntu 13.10. In some older discussion on other fora I found that HDMI output sometimes causes this problem. Test: setting my analog output to HDMI also broke my normal sound. So apparently the browser uses HDMI by default...
MY FIX was to go open PulseAudio Volume Control in the dash and in configuration I simply turned off the HDMI profile (I had one HDMI and one analog there). After that normal sound still works fine and sound plays in the browser as well. Hope this is of some help to you. ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1235537 Title: No audio on skype or flashplayer through firefox - 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1235537/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
