Description Jochem 2010-05-03 13:41:12 UTC 
When playing an audio stream, the Totem Browser Plugin always starts muted. Although the sound volume can be increased, after restarting the stream, it's muted again.

(this problem occurs in Mozilla Firefox 3.6 on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS x86_64
Example stream: http://radioplayer.omroep.nl/3fm-default/asx/audioplayer.html )
Comment 1 Bastien Nocera 2010-05-03 14:14:44 UTC 
My guess is that you don't use, or disabled PulseAudio, which is responsible for restoring the volume across runs.
Comment 2 Jochem 2010-05-03 14:46:08 UTC 
It is a default Ubuntu install and I did not make any changes to PulseAudio (or any sound / audio system).

So this issue can be closed

It's a bug in the browser plugin, which still uses the GConf volume key which we don't use anymore.

    Remove use of GConf volume variable
    
    Seeing as it's not set anywhere anymore, and PulseAudio is
    supposed to remember the volume of the previous stream.
