Public bug reported: Binary package hint: firefox
I have this problem, where audio sound in Firefox just stops working, it cuts off randomly. It's hard for me to replicate, because I usually have Firefox open for extended periods of time, like at least 10+ hours, but this morning I awoke and I played a video on Youtube and the sound cut out immediately in real time. So I went to Log Viewer and saw some corresponding errors at the exact time that sound kicked off. I mad a quick bug log, in case I had time to file later, this is what I documented : """""" Jan 31 07:47:14 mycomp[2077]: ratelimit.c: 39952 events suppressed Jan 31 07:47:14 mycomp[2077]: protocol-native.c: Failed to push data into queue Jan 31 07:48:16 mycomp[2077]: last message repeated 10 times Jan 31 07:49:08 mycomp[2077]: ratelimit.c: 14624 events suppressed --From Messages Log Jan 31 07:47:14 mycomp pulseaudio[2077]: ratelimit.c: 39952 events suppressed Jan 31 07:47:14 mycomp pulseaudio[2077]: protocol-native.c: Failed to push data into queue Jan 31 07:48:16 mycomp pulseaudio[2077]: last message repeated 10 times Jan 31 07:49:06 mycomp wpa_supplicant[1302]: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS Jan 31 07:49:08 mycomp pulseaudio[2077]: ratelimit.c: 14624 events suppressed Jan 31 07:51:06 mycomp wpa_supplicant[1302]: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS --From Syslog The sound stopped at exactly 07:37 in the morning only thing I did was go to the computer and play a youtube video. I lowered the youtube volume SWF player. Mind you the computer had been on all night. Actually, moments later I discovered that the sound doesnt work with mp3 streaming volumes (perhaps more??), but I went to the Internet Archive and happen to click on a streamable OGG and it played just fine. This is around the 4th time this has happened and its random occurrence. The solution is usually to restart Firefox. """"" (I dont know if it's of any use, but there is a similarly reported bug by another user saying his Adobe flash sound stops working in Firefox when he suspends his computer.
