Music is studdering in Firefox

more options

Hi For 3 days now all sounds that is played in Firefox is studdering, like it loads to fast. Windows Audio Endpoint Builder activity go sky high too. Can not even play spotify songs at all when it gets like this, the audio loads, but no sound can be herd. It started just random as I was watching youtube.

But if I play sound in any other web browser or outside of Firefox on VLC or something , the sound is just fine. I removed any added tools, restarted, no it did not work.

Then today, is suddenly went back to normal.... for half the day then it went bad again. Then I was listening on a playlist on Spotify and it went silent so I though the playlist stopped , but no. It was not it, now youtube was messing again.

So what did I do half of the day that fixed it and caused it....I was doing as any other day , looking at youtube and listen to spotify... not much more this day.

This is very annoying to me :(

Check the Volume of Mixer Open Firefox and play content that should play sound, such as this Firefox video. Click the volume icon in the Windows taskbar. Click Mixer Mixer. The Volume Mixer window will appear. Make sure the slider for Mozilla Firefox is not muted or at the bottom.
