Description Samuel Mannehed cendio 2023-08-09 16:43:34 CEST 
Ubuntu 22.04 comes with the snap version of Firefox installed by default. As of bug 7788, Firefox now starts properly in ThinLinc. However, sound doesn't work.

After installing the DEB version of Firefox, sound works just fine:

At the very least, we should update our platform specific note on the topic:

Probably related to bug 2048.

Seems to work on Ubuntu 24.04 with the module-tunnel-sink workaround from bug 8404.
