Web Audio API folks: Do you experience issues in Firefox with oscillator feedback loops?
This graph produces sound where (depending on the feedback gain) I get the harmonics and motion I expect. It's a common technique as part of FM synthesis.
That's in Chrome and Safari. In Firefox, I get silence. Removing the feedback loop gives me sound again. 🤔
