Volume control not working on FF99.01 Ubuntu 22.04

FF updated yesterday with the new Ubuntu 22.04 (Pop) update to 99.01. Since the update the volume control inputs are essentially disabled on all web sites, and they default to max - even when muted.

Example - youtube - all videos play full volume Reddit - even muted videos play full volume

The volume can now only be controlled by the system slider.

The same behavior does not occur in other browsers - e.g. Chromium, Opera, etc.

Can anyone assist?

Chosen solution

Try downloading another copy of Firefox, run it from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release

I cannot replicate the issue in any version of Firefox. Are you in Wayland or X11? What desktop?

I reinstalled and re-started and FF is back to having volume control again. That was bizarre behavior

I have different machines and different Linux distros but today (the only one i can say this HAS happened to me on a few times throughout the day but until now i didn't think anything of it) is Firefox 100.0 on Manjaro Linux .... SOMETHING is going on here and i cant explain it but basically just mentioning this since it happened to me too and it's never been an issue on Firefox or ANY other browser
