no audio in video in firefox 60.0.1

more options

My system is Windows 7 on a Lenovo ThinkPad laptop. I've had no problem playing videos in Firefox until I upgraded yesterday to version 60.0.1. Now, a video plays but there is no audio. In the mixer, a column is shown for Firefox, the volume is up, and a green vertical line bounces up and down while the video is playing. But there's no sound. My sound card driver is up to date. I turned off the hardware acceleration. I have very few plugins installed, and those that are installed are working fine and were used in the previous Firefox version. The same video plays just fine with audio when using Chrome.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

Pkshadow and FredMcd - thank you for our prompt responses. Firefox in safe mode had the same problem. The audio works for videos played in my Chrome browser and in VLC Media Player. I watched a GoToMeeting webinar today and the audio worked. The problem is only with Firefox 60.0.1.

Should I roll Firefox back to the previous version?

Hi tom33pt, if you see Firefox sending audio to Windows in the mixer, but you do not see corresponding activity on the first slider (speakers or other output device), it could indicate that Firefox has lost track of the current output device and is sending audio to a previously used device (e.g., headphones). There might be a drop-down on the first column in the mixer to view the volume for additional output devices.

Sometimes, perhaps if the other device was used by Firefox in a previous session and then disconnected while Firefox was closed, Firefox doesn't detect the currently available device(s) correctly. I can't recall if there is a quick fix for this; some users have mentioned reconnecting and then re-disconnecting the other device, while Firefox is running, as a workaround.

Hi jscher2000. You are correct that there is no activity in the first slider with Firefox, but there is with VLC Media Player and Chrome. I plugged in my headphone and got the same results, i.e. no sound with Firefox but sound with VLC and Chrome. There's no drop-down for additional output devices, and I've used no devices except my speakers and headphones. What other devices might there be?

Unfortunately, I only know about what I posted from other users' comments. I'm not much of an audio user myself.
