Public bug reported:

This is not an Ubuntu specific bug, but rather a bug in the version of
the alsa jack plugin that comes with Trusty (exists in any release
before 1.0.28 of the plugin). Here is a bug report from the Mozilla
database that describes the problem in more detail:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=812900

The basic issue is that if you use a .asoundrc file to route alsa sound
through Jack Audio via the alsa-jack plugin, HTML5 sound doesn't work
properly in Firefox. There are probably other affected apps as well.

** Affects: alsa-plugins (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
