Conway,
   Thanks. I unmasked and emerged mozilla-launcher to get the same
version you had. The one I was using didn't have the aoss flag. That
by itself didn't fix it. After playing with alsamixer and still not
getting any audio I emerged aumix. Once I started aumix I immediately
got audio, so I'm up and working with your help.

   I'll have to see if running aumix is required after logins/reboots,
etc., but at least it's working.

Thanks!
