1 browser window open, 5 volume controls
Every time I open the browser, even after restarting my computer, uninstalling and reinstalling mozilla, I get 5 volume controls in my volume mixer. One window, one tab, five volume controls, no clue why and can't seem to get rid of them. Why is this happening? All the answers I'm getting are "Just ignore it" but I CAN'T IGNORE IT, IT BOTHERS THE HELL OUT OF ME! It makes volume control for a single webpage incredibly complicated because I have to play Which One Is It This Time every time I want to adjust the volume.

Screen shot of the error?
That is caused by Firefox creating multiple content processes. Each content process can have its own volume control in the mixer.

You can look in "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) to see the current multi-process state.

I tried posting a screenshot, it said uploading for half an hour.
I unchecked the box, still have 3 volume controls.
You would have to set the number of content processes to 1 to make only one control appear in the mixer.
