Firefox Snap no audio

Project Discussion Pre-Release Discussion

Since today’s update, I have no audio with firefox snap (youtube). Chrome and VLC works fine.

This happened to me too after latest batch of updates. In my case the audio was disappearing from the system if I hovered the cursor over a Youtube thumbnail and vanishing from settings > sound.

Maybe this:

Confirm. Audio stopped working today. After restarting pipewire all apps workink but stop working after starting firefox with some audio.

This fix worked.

How do you apply this fix?

Desperate to get back on line video again.

sudo mkdir /etc/systemd/user/pipewire-pulse.service.d/

sudo nano /etc/systemd/user/pipewire-pulse.service.d/lsm-syscalls.conf

paste this content:
[Service]
SystemCallFilter=lsm_get_self_attr lsm_set_self_attr lsm_list_modules

then save and close.
restart pipewire-pulse:
systemctl --user daemon-reload && systemctl --user restart pipewire-pulse
