In Fedora Magazine recently, it was indicated that Ask Fedora is moving here, but I see nowhere to ask, so I will post here. I am a longtime Fedora user, since RedHat 5.0.
The issue I am unable to solve is with Firefox (installed from the Fedora repo/KDE spin):
I am trying to learn Russian using Rosetta Stone (free with my local library). I have been using Google Chrome without incident, but when I open Rosetta Stone in Firefox, I am unable to use the microphone.
I have searched the web and located articles from Mozilla and other sources addressing other usersâ issues with the microphone and the setting of permissions, but it simply does not work.
Whenever the language program asks me to speak, the upper left corner of the window flashes wildly (I am unable to determine what it says) and when I click the âswimming spermsâ (lol) symbol in the address bar, I can set the microphone permission for the site, but nothing works. I am unable to speak using the microphone. The upper left corner flashes wildly all over again.
I have checked and the correct microphone is selected. I only have one, but I think the headphone jack on the laptop is the second one, but I am not using that, just the built-in one: Alder Lake PCH-P High Definition Audio Controller Digital Microphone.
Ideas?
