Hi you guys !
Good find ....art !
Since Firefox 83 gave me Trouble loading a few websites i am regularly visiting ...(it hangs and i have to "kill" it.....so makes it unusable for me) ...
I completely made a switch to Waterfox (G3.0.1 64bit -Aurora Channel) ......
Do not need apulse.....Sound on Youtube working fine.
Seems my woes are gone.....
Use it as my daily Driver now.
In case of any frustrating Experience in Future... i will report back.
Will soon give some Advice how to make Waterfox a "Portable" Version by simply using a small Script .
Regards !

Nice one, Art! Current version G3.0.1 works for me ootb in Fossapup64-9.5. No apulse needed. ScPup64-20.06 needs gtk3.

See my post here, viewtopic.php?p=13806#p13806 regarding experiencing Waterfox's behavior after System1's acquisition. It's not negative. But this is not the web-browser I use when I do banking or make online purchases.
