Firefox cannot produce sound correctly

Hello. When I look up a word at a Merriam-Webster site like https://unabridged.merriam-webster.com/ or https://www.merriam-webster.com/ with the Android version of Firefox, it cannot play the pronunciation of the word correctly especially after it is played once. It is kind of divided in segments with abrupt stops. In other words it is not played smoothly.

This has been being continuing for a few months now, and updating Firefox has not improved. I think it is a bug, but I do not know how to report it. Does anyone know how?

Hi

Do you have any other apps running in the background on your Android device or other tabs open in Firefox for Android?

No, I I don't think so. This happens with other online dictionaries as well. Plus, I have two latest android devices, and it happens on both of them.

Something perhaps the same thing is happening to the following person too:
