No sound on YouTube in Firefox
If you are using YouTube in Firefox browser, you may encounter this weird sound problem where you can hear sound in a single channel only. Some users even encounter this strange issues, where, videos go soundless at the maximum volume and, videos play at the booming tone even at the minimum volume. If you are using the Firefox browser, and have encountered with this annoying YouTube sound issue, we recommend using a Firefox add-on called SoundFixer to fix the problem on the web.
Sound Fixer is the web extension exclusively made for Firefox browser users. It works only on Firefox browsers and doesn’t work on many websites that use web audio API from a cross-domain <audio> source. That being said, YouTube is not a cross-domain <audio> and, hence, Sound Fixer is a go-to extension to fix sound problems in YouTube videos. Users can crank up the sound on YouTube video with the help of the audio slider in the SoundFixer, for the troublesome videos, that are soundless for your computer speaker. In this article, we explain how to use SoundFixer to resolve the sound issues in YouTube videos.
