check preferences... Play DRM has to be enabled.

Money talks... no, it shouts, so that it doesn't have to hear common sense.

That site works for me in FF 89.0.1. Are you waiting long enough for the sound to sync up?

DRM enabled, sound never begins, wait >30min. can't find anything that stops it. no scripts seem to kill sound. hp 250 g4 was ok til update. have uninstalled ff, cold reboot and reinstalled several times. still no sound. i'm missing something. nb ff-bin not exist in /usr/bin/, no link, nothing.

Hi boof!

Give WATERFOX a try.

I did replace FIREFOX with WATERFOX.
No "apulse" needed.

Hi!

Same sound problem with latest version of Firefox downloaded from PPM and Seamonkey downloaded from official site. Only Palemoon 29.2 and Chromium 83 give me sound on Youtube. Same problem under Tarhpup64. Puppies and browsers ... not always pleasant

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
