IIRC Jack, ALSA and Pulseaudio are three completely different software stacks. Firefox, as compiled from mozilla, will only work with Pulseaudio. Their official reasoning[1] was: "Make Pulse Audio a hard dependency on Linux so that we reduce the problems and maintenance associated with maintaining multiple audio backends." Whatever rationale is behind that decision is beyond me. I only know Firefox worked perfectly for me for over a decade and now it does not. I guess I am switching to Chrome. Another sad day for FOSS. Many of my online classes do not allow downloading of the media to view in Mplayer or VLC so I am really stuck.
