First time ever. Tested other browsers, sound works fine. Changed no settings when it suddenly went silent. Refreshed. Uninstalled/reinstalled. Nada/nothing. So to not feel as if I've lost my hearing, I won't be using Firefox until there's a fix on their end, already tried everything suggested in troubleshooting and refreshed. It's just not playing well with Win11.

Chosen solution

Found the Volume Mixer in Windows 11 under System, Sound, Volume Mixer after starting Firefox so Windows would show it in the menu. All fixed! Firefox Help did not make it clear the Settings we need to fix this are in Windows, not in Firefox.

But Windows 11 is doing this to Firefox regularly, so it's not fixed permanently, I have to go to the volume mixer like every 2-3 months. Therefore the issue should really be addressed to Windows 11
