IIRC Jack, ALSA and Pulseaudio are three completely different software
stacks. Firefox, as compiled from mozilla, will only work with
Pulseaudio. Their official reasoning[1] was:

"Make Pulse Audio a hard dependency on Linux so that we
reduce the problems and maintenance associated with
maintaining multiple audio backends."

Whatever rationale is behind that decision is beyond me.
I only know Firefox worked perfectly for me for over a decade
and now it does not. I guess I am switching to Chrome. Another
sad day for FOSS.

Many of my online classes do not allow downloading of the media
to view in Mplayer or VLC so I am really stuck.
