This is a follow up to this old thread:
https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20161002.124357.7c39d049.en.html

According to this post on FDN -
http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?p=638632#p638632 - the hard
pulseaudio requirement has now been implemented:

"From Firefox 52 onwards, pulseaudio is a hard requirement for sound on
linux. Alsa is unsupported and alsa code will be removed in Firefox 54."
(from - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.c ... 47056#c178 )

So heads up that Devuan might need recompile FF for alsa if Debian does
not. Of course, the blowback for going down this road could yet change
Mozilla's mind. Yeah, right . . .

Or maybe another viable alternative will miraculously appear . . .
