As I said, "Firefox from a certain version onwards" (shoud be 52) "removed
support for ALSA from the default build configuration (maybe it will be
restored in the future, [...]"

So if you have no pulseaudio and audio is ok with firefox-esr 78, IMHO it
should mean that the ff release you have has been built with ALSA support
(nice if they have restored it!!!) or that you run ff throught apulse...
