Devuan (Debian) - firefox does not show anything / no sound (pulse) #8

hello, I had to add: bind=/dev/shm in '/etc/sandfox/firefox.profile' to get firefox showing any text/pic. (shared memory Grafic)

The next problem is no sound with pulseaudio in the sandbox. Outside of the sandbox it works nice for the only user (uid=1000). I tried commandline-option --bind /run/user/1000/pulse , but that does not help. Could you help? L, uwe

Seems odd that Firefox would require /dev/shm, could be due to an addon or other component. I'm not seeing any dependency on that in 52.7.2.

I don't personally use pulseaudio, but it should be just a matter of finding out what file is needed. Go from the general to the specific. For example, if you think the problem is in /run, try binding all of /run, and if that works, then narrow it down more. You can also consult the help.
