I upgraded to Solaris 11 x86 and Firefox 3.6.10. I have sound through Solaris but not through Firefox or any of the add-ons. I am using USB speakers which work with Solaris Rythmbox. How can I redirect Firefox audio to my USB speakers?

It works fine, thank you. There is one glitch when I turn off my system and on the next day the audio is missing again. Applying the dsp to dsp 0 reboot and then back to dsp1 reboot I get the audio back.

Is there any way to restart the process?
