Title: firejail firefox and audio
Post by: artik on 17 February 2021, 10:32:28
My firefox was playing all type of sound (youtube, vimeo, online radios etc) until the latest firejail and firefox update. After that no sound from any of the above mentioned. However, I am able to play video/audio files using vlc, mpayer, mpv. I haven't touched my firejail configs (I have the working configs backed up in another directory. even replacing with them doesn't help). Could some one point to me a direction how can I troubleshoot and make it work?

Many thanks,

so report it in firejail, they need some update probably. Because firefox works without problems after last update.

from firejail docs:

After install run:


$ firecfg --fix-sound

This command fixes some bugs in PulseAudio software versions available on most Linux platforms. After running it, logout and login again for the modifications to take effect.
