I can't speak to any of the other browsers, but can tell you I get sound in firefox-esr on a Chimaera install without pulseaudio, and without apulse. Removing pulseaudio is all I did, I didn't do anything to firefox itself.

Re: [DNG] Distrowatch user satisfaction stats
To be honest, I never heard of distrowatch before. There are 221 reviews on Devuan, though. 221! People seem to know the place, and going full steam tu use it to share with the world! We must be doing something right!! :D Taking Debian, which had solid basis in the past, and fixing the crap introduced by poor leadership and catastrophic GR? Feels strange people eventually like the result, right? Oh, wait. Kudos to all the quiet hard workers behind that success!

[DNG] Distrowatch user satisfaction stats
I was poking around distrowatch (I don't very often) and found a page which ranks Linux distros according to user ratings. Devuan is #2! Arch is #1 and Debian and the 'buntus (and other "popular distros) are further down the page: https://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=ranking If you're interested, you can read the reviews on which that ranking was based at: https://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=ratings=devuan We must be doing something right!! :D golinux ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

..try apulse $them, at least the firefox people said they
"would only support PulseAudio" a while back.

Indeed.

After a fair bit of searching `in turns out that
/etc/asound.coinf and/or ~.asoundrc were missing
Entering (/etc/asound.conf)
for system wide setting.
pcm.!default {
type hw
card 1
}
ctl.!default {
type hw
card 1
}
and a reboot fixed it.
Entering (~.asoundrc)
for oersonal(per login) setting
defaults.pcm.!card 1
defaults.ctl.!card 1
YMMN, but that is all I need as I do not have any HDMI speakers or USB
speakers, or bluetooth speakers.
This fixed it for vlc, qasmixer and alsamixer in that they correctly
took the speakers I wanted as default and I didnt have to manually
select the motherboard sound chip.
I'm still working on why the browsers(falkon & firefox-esr) and
quiterss(what ever browser it loads) are not playing sound.
