sound stopped working

Ok, this is getting ridiculous. First system sounds don’t want to work (turns out to be a kernel version issue) and now Youtube sound doesn’t want to work.

Well, considering I had similar issues with youtube in the past, it usually turns out to be some browser or plugin issue. What is the browser you are using and are there any plugins or extensions that are needed for sound playback of streaming content?
