It will be enabled automatically when 63*4882a593Smuzhiyun DISTRO_FEATURES contains "alsa". Note that Firefox's default audio backend 64*4882a593Smuzhiyun is PulseAudio, not ALSA. Although it's not enabled in official build, we 65*4882a593Smuzhiyun enable it by default to make easy to play audio without additional daemons. 66*4882a593Smuzhiyun When PulseAudio is running, it will be used instead of using ALSA directly 67*4882a593Smuzhiyun even if this config is specified. 68*4882a593Smuzhiyun 69*4882a593Smuzhiyun* wayland: (detected automatically) 70*4882a593Smuzhiyun Enable wayland support.
