I am using firefox developer edition 72.0b6 (64-bit) and window 10 operating system.
Let me explain the issue and configuration.
I have set my window power setting "Turn of the display" to "1 minute".
So if i am watching youtube or primevideo video in full screen and then pause the video for more the 1min. As per the power setting, the display will turn off.
Now here some the issue, when i resume the video. Display will turn on, video and audio will resume but with dark grey screen.
To reset the video screen i have to escape from full screen.
Please help with this issue and thanks in advance.

Changing the appearance (not the position!) of the tabs

I raised this (and it was off-topic, so my apologies) in the recent thread about getting the tabs back to below the address bar following the update to 71.0. Having successfully done the move - and thanks to everyone for the help - I'd now like to restore the appearance of the tabs and the tab bar to what I had before the update. I suspect that that was thanks to installing a theme, but I'm afraid I no longer have the details.
I'm attaching a pic of what I'd like to achieve.
Cor-el kindly gave me this for my UserChrome.css file:
.tabbrowser-tab:not([selected]) .tab-content { background-color: #99EEFF !important; }
and that goes some way. But I'd still like to generate a vertical gap between the tabs, round off their top corners, and change the background colour. Despite searching around I haven't yet found the specific coding to do this: if anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be very grateful. Many thanks.
Firefox can't play audio via my bluetooth headphones, only plays on the computer speakers,other browsers + local music automatically play via the headphones.

When I connect my computer to my wireless headphones, all the sounds from programs and audios I play on all the other browsers (chrome, edge, opera, etc) are automatically played via the connected/paired headphones. When I play audio or watch youtube on Firefox, the sound plays directly on my computer's speakers. It's as if no headphones were connected at all.
I opened up the volume mixer and included screenshots below. On the left, when I'm not connected to the headphones, the sound plays via the speakers and you can clearly see mozilla's audio levels in green are ok. When I connect the headphones (middle photo) the sound still plays via the speakers but there are two firefoxes and one is playing audio, the other is not. I don't know why there are two, I only have one tab open. Lastly, when I switch the audio device to headphones, Firefox completely disappears from the list of applications playing audio. I opened up other browsers and played audio in each and they are listed in the applications, as you can see in the last photo. They are actively playing audio as indicated by the green audio levels and I can hear them via the headphones. Firefox on the other hand, is still playing via my computer's speakers.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? Firefox is my main browser so it's tedious to have to open another browser when I want to watch youtube or listen to something.

First, I just had a major system crash, had to re-install Linux Mint and through my own stupidity, relied on the wrong backups for my firefox configuration. So I lost my Firefox 52 install with all of my extensions (that still worked). Now, I'm running v. 57 Quantum, and a few things aren't working correctly.
First, the MAJOR problem: when I open a link from a bookmark, it's clobbering an existing tab that I was using (that's why it was open, obviously). That is completely unsat and can not be allowed to continue. How do I correct this? I can't find the option under settings-->tabs to fix this problem.
Second issue (major annoyance): I can no longer create a bookmark directly in a bookmark folder on the bookmark toolbar. I used to be able to open that bookmark folder, and the first option was to bookmark the currently open tab. That option has vanished, and i use that all the time. How do I restore that?
Actually, one more issue: I have two tabs that are pinned and are supposed to be protected (i.e., nothing can clobber them, and I can't close them without deliberately turning the protection off (context menu right-clicking on tab). I need that back, because for some reason, firefox thinks it's ok to open a bookmark in those tabs, too, when it most definitely is NOT ok.
