Today I noticed nothing gets downloaded while trying to listen a sound file (mp3, wav., etc.) when I choose Download, regardless if I choose "just once or always"? If I choose "complete action using Sound Player", the audio file will play BUT YOU CANNOT DOWNLOAD IT? And before the moderator posts here like I've seen on 2 other threads regarding this problem...with the answer of long click somewhere on the player to save the file....No, there is no long press and nothing happens! This issue didn't exist before because I've downloaded the exact same audio file from the same website before using my Android Galaxy S3 and of course Firefox (but a older version). When I choose download, the filename will appear in the phones download folder, but the file always shows 0 kbytes, and the Firefox/Tools/Downloads is always empty.

Ok, I tried downloading from the same website using the default Android web browser. It in fact gives the option to download or play with player. And when you download it in fact downloads to the download folder!

Summary: Firefox 33.0 is the problem.
