Bug report, Xperia X10, SFOS 3.3.0.16

Sound on internet pages e.g. radio stations and also from the "AllRadio" app does not work. I can find no way to fix it via app and/or system settings. System sounds like telephone ringing and SMS beep do work.

What happens if you try to play local music files with filebrowser?

What happens when pressing the hardware volume up button while playing music (even silent)? Can you see the sound bar moving?

Working fine, Webradio (Allradio app), Internet homepage sound (http://oe1.orf.at) and playing local files - sound works now. Problem solved! Have no idea why volume setting was at zero after the last update. Before the update, volume was set to max. Forgot/did not think to check this... Thank you so much!

Good. I think your problem was due to the strange audio volume management in SFOS v3.X: ringing and music volumes are separate, and the latter can be adjusted only while playing music. Plus, the music sound bar and the three-finger gesture tend to disappear randomly until next reboot.

May I suggest to tag this question as solved?
