Microphone very quiet when Firefox uses it on Mac
Running Firefox 125.0.1 on MacOS 14.2.1, all audio input is very quiet for all applications, not just Firefox. Experiments I ran: people can barely hear me in Google… (funda kabanzi)
Running Firefox 125.0.1 on MacOS 14.2.1, all audio input is very quiet for all applications, not just Firefox.
Experiments I ran:
- people can barely hear me in Google Meets
- microphone works great in Quicktime (making a recording) when Firefox is running but not receiving audio input
- microphone is very quiet in Quicktime when running a Google Meet in Firefox
- microphone is very quiet in Quicktime when running a discord voice channel in Firefox
- microphone works great in Quicktime when running Google Meet in Chrome
This started maybe ~3 months ago for me. I'd love to see a fix, since Firefox is my favorite browser in most other ways - otherwise I'll have to give up and switch to Chrome at long last :'(
