Did anyone else have any problems? It was working fine yesterday, but now it isn't, so I'm not sure if it is related to this version

Firefox Nightly 132.0b8 is working fine

edit: I should mention that I already restarted win11, restarted Firefox, tried under Firefox safe mode with extensions disable, but the problem persists

Yesterday I had an issue where the audio for Firefox was set to "mute" on Linux, even after a restart of the browser. I'm not sure if it was my own fault and thought that I hit a key combination to mute it. When I checked in my operating system the audio for this application, it was on mute and I have no idea why. After unmuting its normal now. I update frequently, so maybe this was a problem with the update after all.

Found a solution, thanks to Bigsleep62:

"I solved this problem by going to settings -> system -> sound, then under "Advanced" click "Volume Mixer," then at the bottom press "Reset sound devices..." Windows 10"

It worked for me on Windows 11 too

I had this happen last night, did the reset sound devices but had to refresh the active tab playing video to get the sound working.

You can also get straight to Volume Mixer in the start menu by typing Mixer, I use it multiple times a day for workflow
