Title: Very strange sound problem
Post by: UPRC on December 19, 2009, 12:44:41 pm

Hey.

Last night before falling asleep, my computer worked fine in every way, shape and form.. But this morning, I woke up and hopped on. Heard all of the regular Vista boot up sounds, so sound was working. However, I went to YouTube to watch a video and there was no sound at all. My volume on YouTube was not muted or down all the way, so I didn't understand it.

I then checked my mp3s, and they all worked fine. I have sound and everything, but not in Firefox or something, I'm not really sure.


And yeah, just Firefox. I just checked as I was writing this, and I have sound on YouTube when I use Google Chrome, so it's a Firefox problem of some sort. Anyone familiar with this?

It might be a plugin problem with firefox. First download the uninstaller, than the latest plugin. Close firefox and use the uninstaller, then install the latest plugin. Use this page for a reference if necessary: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Using+the+Flash+plugin+with+Firefox

A link to the uninstaller: Flash Uninstaller (http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player.exe)
Here's the latest version of flash: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

Did you mute firefox? Left click on the volume tray icon and go to mixer and see if it is muted.

are other programs muted where you don't explicitly tell the sound device you want to use, like RPG Maker? and do you use an external audio thing because my m-audio fast track's drivers were buggy and I couldn't hear sound unless it was foobar or winamp or some program where you choose 'm audio fast track' from a list. So no sound in firefox etc. and m-audio didn't do anything about this I don't think

Its a question of commands and keys. If you use wrong commands, It tends to jump to other options and you could easily go very far. Manuals are most handy.
