Bug#857050: firefox no longer plays sound without pulseaudio daemon

Tue Mar 14 20:41:58 UTC 2017

Package: firefox
Version: 52.0-1
Followup-For: Bug #857050

Dear Maintainer,

No ALSA sound with firefox here too.

For various reasons (extra CPU load, extra latency, stutter, etc) pulseaudio is not an option in certain systems,  while ALSA works rock-solid (and pulseaudio requires ALSA anyway).

Please - do compile the next package(s) from firefox with ALSA support (compile option "--enable-alsa"), as proposed by other bug reporters.

Thank you!
