kill all apps which use your OSS audio device /dev/dsp. I guess some
soundserver is blocking it and firefox simply waits for the device to
be freed.
If this helps then ensure to have a recent ALSA version which does
softwaremixing by default and ask the firefox developers to switch from
OSS to ALSA.

I guess that's my problem too. How do I know what's using OSS? Can I just
disable it completely while leaving ALSA intact?
