Help with the Sound of Music
I have not had any sound on DU for the past couple months. Really aggravating. I can't figure out what I did to deserve this, or how to make it come back.
Help please. I've posted about it a couple times previously.

6. When you mouse over the video, you should see a speaker icon
Is there an X thru it? |

8. Happens to me all the time, but it remembers your last choice
|
If you muted it for the last video, all subsequent videos will be muted.

13. In site settings options, there's a choice to 'mute site' or add a site to 'mute' list.

15. It's not listed under 'DU' or 'My Account'. It's wherever you customize 'permissions' ...

17. Here is an excerpt from one of the 'how to geek' pages showing how to "mute''...
|
so there must be instructions for 'unmuting'. I'm not very techy, but maybe this page will offer a better explanation of where the problem is hiding (?)
https://www.howtogeek.com/324568/how-to-automatically-mute-new-tabs-in-chrome-and-firefox/ Under the “Privacy and security” section, click “Content settings.” Click “Sound.”

20. IT WORKED!!
|
It worked! It worked! It worked!
Opened in Firefox, and now I have sound back. I'm thrilled!  
Although I still don't understand why this happened with Chrome, and only on DU. |

21. Me neither
|
It may be a chrome page setting - I don't use it much.
But either way, I'm thrilled that you're thrilled.  |
