Public bug reported: After upgrading to 16.04LTS, I no longer get sound from either chromium or firefox, tested on both youtube and facebook videos. Both "play" and "paplay" produce sound from the command line.
If I log in as a guest user, firefox can play audio - I didn't test chromium. Something in the upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04 didn't agree with my existing settings.
