I have the same problem back with last update.

I tried to open youtube video in FireFox, and on console I have lot of the following messages

  ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:874:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave

and no video sound (while rhythmbox works well); same problem with skype.

Kill the pulseaudio daemon restore the rigth behavior

merlos@merlos-lap:/var/log$ ps axf | grep puls
 7188 ? Sl 0:31 | \_ /usr/bin/pulseaudio --log-target=syslog
 7191 ? S 0:00 | \_ /usr/lib/pulseaudio/pulse/gconf-helper

merlos@merlos-lap:/var/log$ killall pulseaudio
merlos@merlos-lap:/var/log$ ps axf | grep puls
