Ok with FF and pulse audio, you need to
"direct" the output. The best
tool, easiest tool to do that with is "Pulseaudio System Tray"
there's also PNMixer, but I like PST. Here's a small video of it in
use.
Right click on playback streams and choose your output, in my case
it's the emu10k2 (sound blaster audigy) I can also send it to my tv
(caiso hdmi).
Try installing Pulseaudio System Tray or pavucontrol with
pavucontrol-qt gui. If you need some video tutorials, let me know
I'll make them.

Although I'm not having audio issues with PCLinuxOS/TDE Mini installed
on each of the hard drives (It worked perfectly right out of the box.),
pavucontrol is already installed, but not the pavucontrol-qt package.
Playing a music video on YouTube, then launching the PA volune control,
it shows the audio for Firefox on "Built-in Audio Analog Stereo", with
All Streams as the default. Is this volume control something that should
also launch at startup (along with Kmix) and would this work running
TDE from the Ubuntu live image?

I can only speak to installed
OSes and don't know much about ubuntus.
However, I don't think you'll find these, by default, on any ubuntu live cds.
The PA volume control of your choice, should auto start like kmix.
I don't know about ubuntu, so you'll have to see what's available.
I have pavucontrol/pavucontrol-qt, PNMixer, and Pulseaudio System Tray (the
one I use). Use one of them to shunt the output to your device of choice.
IE
Internal audio card, hdmi video card with audio support, bluetooth
spearker/headset etc. Experiment with each output until you have sound.
I'm sure others will pop in with clear, better suggestions. So experiment
until them. You can't hurt anything.
Cheers,
