Are you using Windows 10 Insider builds?
If so the sound likely still works in anything using the Flash Player Plugin from Adobe in Firefox but not in HTML5 player.
Mozilla has a working workaround patch in upcoming Firefox 58.0 (Jan 13) and maybe for the Firefox 52 ESR as Microsoft may be a while fixing this on their end even with the cause known.

uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files(x86) Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do :

Reinstall with Current Release Firefox 57.0.3 with a Full Version Installer
Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

Heads-up, Windows fix has reached mainline as of build 17073
Hi guys, this problem can be caused with the upgrade of Firefox if you are using a sandbox (Sandboxie). To overcome it a solution is as follows -
Open Firefox outside Sandboxie Type about:config and accept the risk Search for "sandbox" Switch security.sandbox.content.level to 2 (mine was 3, if needed switch it to 1 or 0 ). Close Firefox Relaunch Firefox 57 Sandboxed and re-try the audio.
