    Hey,

    So when I try and watch digital media on Mozilla or IE I get no sound, same for sites like youtube, espn, facbook, etc.

    But my sound is working fine for applications like iTunes, Skype, etc.

    I've tried restarting my computer and browser, but no luck. I know its probably something stupid, but really frustrating me. Thanks for any help.

    if you are using vista....left click the speaker icon in the system tray and click mixer...it should show you individual volume controls for any apps that are currently open. Make sure you have a browser open when you do this.

    No luck there.

    Had both Firefox and IE open and neither showed up on the mixer.

    Try to re-install Adobe Flash Player.
