Had an issue with Fx 54 where no sound was played, with errors like

Code:
do_connect_pcm: can't open playback device "default". Error code -13 (Permission denied)


To fix this, apply the workaround from https://github.com/i-rinat/apulse/issues/54

Quote:
Code:
open("/dev/snd/controlC0", O_RDWR)
is blocked by sandbox. workaround: set
Code:
security.sandbox.content.write_path_whitelist
to
Code:
/dev/snd/controlC0,/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p
.


The setting is accessible via about:config in Firefox. Maybe Gentoo should add this to the default config if apulse is used?
