To preface this, I am on MacOS.

I noticed a small delay before starting videos while I have my AirPods connected. There are a few scenarios where this delay does not exist: - Any other browser - Audio is actively playing elsewhere - Mic is in use (like a zoom meeting in the background, even when muted) - Audio is muted

I have tried safe-mode, reinstalling, and even messing with the config, to no avail. I know for sure this is isolated to Firefox, and I believe it's due to how audio devices are handled. I would rather my videos immediately play rather than wait for a "health" check from my connected device, even if there isn't audio for that time period.

Again ONLY in FF harbor freight search function breaks when entering a search.

Yes, please don't give me the MS ctrl-alt-del type of response about cookies.... That was done many times before posting this. The website works fine in Brave. MS Edge well, let's not speak of it in public company shall we.

So, now what the heck is happening to FF???? I have contacted HF three times and they referred me to use other browsers other than FF. No, I DO NOT have multiple extensions nor themes. FF is bare bones but for uBlock. Hardware acceleration is off and MS Clear type is on. Anybody wanna fess up, who broke this????

I am on a MacBookPro running MacOS 15.5.

My FireFox automatically updated to 139.0.4 on June 10th. Since then, my ability to access the internet with FireFox only has been intermittent - I can connect for a variable number seconds and then it disconnects for minutes or hours. I have no problems connecting to the internet with Chrome or Safari, or with other applications. My perusal of the forums leads me to believe that it is the latest update that is causing the problems.

Has anyone experienced this problem and/or does anyone have a fix? Thanks in advance.

Good morning from germany,

I am a multiple year subscriber and wanted to watch game 6 before going to work (it is around 6 am over here) but the player isn´t running and it states that games can not be played, even the recap doesn´t start. Other videos are running as on youtube and other social networks. I switched a VPN from location germany to location USA to off but nothing works. I am using the newest version of mozilla firefox.

Can you give me some help what I can watch in order to watch the last two Finals games as well?

Thx guys
