Yes, I am using pulseaudio.

I just tried that without success. > Sorry, I've no useful ideas. Actually, there were some useful ideas there. They just didn't work for me. Right now I'm building ff-21. It takes a long time, so I'll try it tomorrow. I suppose I could also try downloading a binary just to see if that works. I was going to do a full build on my development system soon. I'll up the priority of ff there. That's a64-bit system and more current audio packages may help.
