Bug 213964: www/firefox make sound options mutually exclusive
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=213964



--- Description ---
When Firefox is built with both alsa and pulseaudio options enabled, although
it successfully builds there is no audio produced via Firefox.	This is an
issue with some type of conflict between alsa and pulseaudio.  If alsa is
selected but pulseaudio is not, audio output from Firefox works as expected.

I suggest a change from checkboxes in the audio section to the mutually
exclusive radio buttons. I believe this would be a modification to
Makefile.options

from

OPTIONS_MULTI+= 	AUDIO
OPTIONS_MULTI_AUDIO=	ALSA PULSEAUDIO

to

OPTIONS_SINGLE+=	 AUDIO
OPTIONS_SINGLE_AUDIO=	 ALSA PULSEAUDIO
