Attached patch patch_audioSplinter Review
On my Linux there is no pulseaudio and I don't want it. Shudder. Therefore I use --disable-pulseaudio. Not long ago sound stopped working. For testing I used https://www.high-tech.com/panther/archive/the ventures_the pink panther theme.mp3. You may do so also, nice music. :)

The culprit is

summary:     Bug 1247056 - Don't default-enable alsa on Linux - r=kentuckyfriedtakahe

I'm at the moment using the attached fix patch_audio. There may be a better way.
Spaces in the link to the .mp3. It was copied from the location bar of my SM and I'm tempted to call that a bug. Well, here ist the link with %20 replacing the spaces. Should work now.

Well, in my new build .mp3 does not longer work. dicct.cc, youtube and ,mp4 do. Hm. Perhaps someone knows what's going on. Otherwise I will look into this new disaster later.
For Linux without pulseaudio is now --enable-alsa mandatory and works. Therefore I'm closing this bug.
