Comment 24 for bug 858466

I have installed Google Chrome and Opera for Linux, Firefox for windows under Wine (flashplayer won't install), the beta version of flashplayer 11. But none of it has made the sound work in my browsers.

In Chrome, HTML 5 sound didn't work, but in Firefox it did.

I uninstalled and killed pulseaudio, and that made no difference. If I could install an ALSA mixer without uninstalling a large chunk of the system, I'd do it. I've always been happy with ALSA, and never really understood why pulseaudio came around. Meanwhile, browser audio within Firefox and Chrome works fine on Windows 7, to which I have to boot if I want to watch a video online.
