Microphone doesn't work in FireFox on android 5
Firefox cann't use microphone in my android 5.1 device. But a camera work perfectly (after confirm allow in a pop-up with asking "if you want to share your device’s camera and microphone with that site.") FireFox detect microfone as "default input device" but it doesn"t work. In a special sites that can test a work of the microphone, drop down list of the detected device (in the Firefox) contains only one item "default input device" and microphone doesn't work. In other browsers (Chrome), вesides this "default input device" that drop down also contains other items and microphone work perfectly I need to use microphone in Firefox for web version of a messenger that doesn't support in ohter browsers and apk on this android device

(or may give a link where I could find a solution) I tried: - full uninstall FF and install it again - non effect - install Firefox Nightly for Developers - non effect - install Firefox Beta for Testers - non efffect - install Firefox Focus - non efffect May be there is some about:config parameters? I really cann't understand why other applications and browsers detect and use microphone fine but only FireFox (all version) has so problem

Hi there,
Have you make sure that Firefox for Android has the right permission to access microphone from your Android device?
Hi, thank for answer How can I do it? As far as I know Android 5.1 has no interface for permission setting. During the installation Firefox a window appears with list of the permission that FF require access to, but it just information window, which doesn't allow to edit permission. (This window contain item "microphone")
What is the address of the website that you were using to test this?
I were using https://mictests.com/ ...and same effect on all other websites where need to use microphone
You can also use the Microphone in another browser, if it works fine then maybe your FireFox version is faulty.
