I'm a non-technical person running FreeBSD 13.2-STABLE on an ASUS Vivobook laptop. Up until recently I was able to watch YouTube videos, etc... with sound in Firefox. Today it has become apparent that sound no longer works from Firefox, and I tested it in Chomium too and it doesn't work there either. Obviously something has changed, but I don't know what. Mixer settings seem normal:
So does output of cat /dev/sndstat:
I'm a total novice so I don't really know what else to check to diagnose the problem. Audio does seem to work in other applications, such as Telegram, which still makes notification sounds and plays video with audio. The last thing I was doing was trying to get Oracle VirtualBox to work, which I did, and I have a feeling I must have done something that messed this up but I can't imagine what. I work with women who insist on playing the radio all day, so regaining this functionality is crucial to my sanity.
Code:
Mixer vol is currently set to 61:61
Mixer pcm is currently set to 100:100
Mixer speaker is currently set to 0:0
Mixer mix is currently set to 74:74
Mixer rec is currently set to 37:37
Mixer igain is currently set to 0:0
Mixer ogain is currently set to 100:100
Mixer monitor is currently set to 67:67

So does output of cat /dev/sndstat:
