This is Beowulf, not Chimaera, but Firefox works fine with ALSA here,
including splitting input and output between different devices, etc.
$ cat ~/.asoundrc
pcm.!default {
type asym
playback.pcm {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmix"
}
capture.pcm {
type plug
slave.pcm "hw:2,0"
}
}
I arrived at hw:2,0 (card 2, subdevice 0 - my USB webcam) for capture based
on:
$ arecord -l
List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices
card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC892 Analog [ALC892 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 2: ALC892 Alt Analog [ALC892 Alt Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 2: C525 [HD Webcam C525], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
We're plugging away at a wiki where we folks can easily document this
stuff.

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.

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

Scenarios always come in sets of three:
best case, worst case, and just in case.

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.
