html5 pulseaudio

How do I get html5 video (youtube) to use pulseaudio? Right now if I'm playing sound in banshee the video won't have any sound.
Flash was having the same problem until I installed libflashsupport-pulse.
I'm using archlinux x86_64.

It's different for every browser but banshee outputs media through gstreamer. I would tell gstreamer to use pulse.

Great things come in tar.xz packages.

Ok so I just need to tell firefox to use pulse if thats possible. Also I already told banshee and others to use pulse.

You don't really need libflashsupport-pulse.

Read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pulse#ALSA for how to configure ALSA with pulseaudio in order to support applications that talk directly to ALSA and/or don't support pulseaudio.

I've already done all that it doesn't actually help.

What doesn't help?

Do you get errors? Did you see your log files? If you get errors post them here so people know what the problem might be.

Re: html5 pulseaudio

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pulse#ALSA Doesn't help with playing html5 sound and any other sound, I can only play one or the other.
Are there any log files for html5 / firefox?
