[gentoo-user] no sound on upgraded Firefox from 7 to 8 - using pulse audio

Hi,

I have just upgraded Firefox from 7 to 8 and after that I was unable to
hear the sound of videoclips from YouTube, for instance.

I remember there was a little trick to make past versions of FF to work
with pulse audio (that I use so VirtualBox machines can also play sounds),
but can't find what it was.

Any hints, please?

Thanks
Francisco
