Audio in websdr without java 5 years ago
I noticed some of the websdr online receivers were only offering html5 audio and html5 waterfall display. The waterfall display started working ok in recent firefox for linux but the audio always remained silent. Until I checked and checked again and the solution seemed to be 'check audio settings'. And I found the 'AudioCallbackDriver' from application 'CubebUtils' with a firefox icon in pavucontrol (PulseAudio volume control) which was set to output level 0 (silence). Changing that to a more reasonable volume helped a lot! Now I don't need java applets in my browser to use the different websdr servers.
