Yeah, I haven't tried this in months, but it used to work.
I stopped updating FF circa 124, they might've messed something up again, check this first, but input definitely worked with apulse.

Oh, it's complicated, but it's mostly related to switching to HDMI output, I did nothing special for the mic to work.
I've only tried it with the built-in mic as I only use it for video calls, I have my macs for advanced audio, but I'm pretty sure external one would work too.
@dcc
Does arecord produce audible results for you? If so, it should also work in FF with apulse.
The only thing that comes to mind, there are model-specific fixed for snd-hda-audio.
This HP laptop, I'm typing this on, is pretty well supported it even has a LED to indicate whether mic is muted or not, but I have to pass "model=hp-led" to snd-hda-intel for it to work, maybe you need something like that too.
@dcc
Well, yeah, in my case it's the same card — as it's a laptop and it's all integrated audio, if that's not your case, yeah, it might be complicated, you might have to make a pcm plug that would use input from one device and output of the other, but in my case — I didn't have to do any of that.
You do understand having the same card is different than having a separate dac's? i had the same issuse with openbsd and sndio audio being on seprate cards with firefox.
@dcc
Yes, man, I do 😁 In my case, although it's the same physical device, it's two cards in ALSA terms: one of them has all the analog inputs and outputs, the other one has different channel configurations for HDMI output. As in my case both the mic and the built-in speaker (and line output) are on the same ALSA card, I only have to set it the default and it just works.
@dcc
In your case it might be different — you might have to make a virtual ALSA plug to collect input and output from different cards, so that Firefox would use it, but I didn't have to do any of that.
