I can't reproduce this. I'm using ~amd64, firefox 8, pulseaudio 1.1.
Do you have multiple sound cards or sound output devices? Maybe the
sound is going to another sink that the one you expected? I'm under
KDE, and KMix have a cool extension by PA that let me direct streams
online to the sink I wish.

[gentoo-user] no sound on upgraded Firefox from 7 to 8 - using pulse audio

[Francisco Ares]

Hi,

I have just upgraded Firefox from 7 to 8 and after that I was unable to
hear the sound of videoclips from YouTube, for instance.

I remember there was a little trick to make past versions of FF to work
with pulse audio (that I use so VirtualBox machines can also play sounds),
but can't find what it was.

Any hints, please?

Thanks
Francisco
