I am using three sound devices and using the .asoundrc file I have set the third device as the default.
I can play audio using vlc, alsaplayer etc but not when I play an audio file via firefox - video is OK but no sound. It appears that mplayer plugin used in firefox appear to route audio to hw:0,0 which is a webcam and hence no playback capability. Is there any way to force mplay plugin to use a given audio device rather than using the default hw:0,0 device? Tried using vlc, alsaplayer etc for handling audio on firefox without success.
