Hello again.
I've just tested firefox-esr/78.6.0esr-1 from unstable and
firefox-esr/78.6.0esr-1~deb10u1 from stable/updates.

They behave exactly as firefox-esr/78.3.0esr-2: after allowing the use
of the mic, the mic signal does not seem to reach the browser (as if
the mic were broken).

But the mic works perfectly with chromium.

And once again, I had to downgrade firefox-esr to version 68.7.0esr-1,
so that the mic works.

Is there any progress on this bug?
Has any developer been able to reproduce it?

Please recall that, according to another user, the [mic works] on
firefox-esr without Debian patches. Hence, it seems that the issue is
caused by one of the Debian patches.
Could you please investigate in this direction?

[mic works]: <https://bugs.debian.org/960301#85>

Please let me know.
I am more and more worried by the need to stay with an old firefox-esr
version!
