The package uses ALSA for sound, I guess? Sound does "work for me"
when using pulseaudio (that's the other sound option for firefox),
but I haven't tried alsa for ages. Any other report on this?
There is https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=203732
but I'm not sure if that's really related.

Regards,
Christoph
