I am taking an online course, and since Firefox update this evening, I no longer have sound with videos. Same is true for any u-tube, etc. No sound. Video is good, just no sound. Imperative that I get sound back. I assume it is some add-on that was disabled, but I don't see anything in the EXTENSIONS section that would be related to this.

I had my son take a look at it, and he found that the MUTE button was on. I don't have any recollection of clicking it at any time but once it was turned off, everything has been fine.

Good luck.

isssue audio plays on internet explorer and google but not on firefox 8 the latest
