Firefox does not appear in volume mixer in Windows 10. No sound is audible in Firefox. The same Web sites work well and produce audio in other browsers. Everything's OK with PC audio system.

I followed your instruction exactly and still no Firefox in volume mixer. Microsoft Edge was there but disappeared, but I can hear sound from Edge browser. I can hear system sounds and my speakers are working fine. But still no sound in Firefox. I have cleared the cache and cookies but still nothing. I have been using Firefox ever since it came out and would like to continue using the browser.
