As the release of firefox-66 approaches (due this coming week) I've
been keeping an eye on the candidate versions. Mostly, I use
pulseaudio - but until now been building the alsa version on one of
my old machines, to check it still works.
On that machine, build 3 built ok and generally worked - except that
attempting to watch youtube would start to render the initial
youtube page and then the tab would crash. Attempting to reload the
tab would again crash. I killed firefox, updated qt and
qtwebengine, then retried - same result.
I've now built the pulse version (I have pulse installed, my only
reason to try to use alsa was to test it) and on that youtube works
fine. I conclude that using alsa instead of pulse with firefox-66
might be disappointing.
