--- Comment #27 from Dave Cottlehuber <dch at freebsd.org> ---
quick update - using sndiod may be a workaround for people impacted by this.

- running `sndiod -s default -ddd` in a terminal
- change media.cubeb.backend = sndio in firefox
- restart

I have working audio both from local mp3 and from youtube/invidious but
can't test webrtc yet, maybe somebody with a webcam can try out

ungoogled-chromium has a hard dependency on libsndio even though it doesn't
appear to use it at runtime by default.
