Pulse seems pretty functional now. Did you know it was still possible to build firefox with alsa support?

It seems like a lot of addons are being ported to the new apis too. Maybe you are too hasty?

There would be "rioting in the streets" of the internet if Mozilla ever decided to drop support for ALSA in Firefox.

There are distros, Void Linux (which I am using right now) for one, which ship without pulseaudio (or systemd for that matter) installed by default, thank goodness.
