but when I click on a link apparently pointing to: https://www.pulseaudio.org/

but I am being redirected to an obnoxious looking page at:

http://0pointer.net/ ~ The problem doesn't seem to be the sound card since you listen through it just fine. Here is what I have got:

Did you try to start Firefox via a terminal window to see if there are error messages?

You can also check the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) for error messages about playing audio.
