I went here
and looked for PluseAudio (although plus should’ve pulled it up) pops up with no matches.
I read the first header and still didn’t see it. Can you take screenshot?
If you’re planning on installing software – at present moment or in the future – you should use the distribution package manager. Since Whonix is based on Debian you should the official Debian package manager called) APT
When you went to the Mozilla site you saw this mentioned which was referring to the above.
Use your system’s software package manager and ensure that PulseAudio is correctly installed.
Unfortunately its not always that easy. To get audio working in Whonix 13 you may have to do some troubleshooting. That’s why awokd mentioned you may want to try Whonix 14 (audio should work). However its important to add that Whonix 14 is still in testing. There a a few issues that need to be ironed out but they are not security related.
How do I check what version I am running? When did Whonix 14 come out? I haven’t been using Qubes for that long but if its easy to test the version I am willing to try.
If your output has “jessie” for Debian version (like the following), you’re using Whonix 13. If it has “stretch”, its Whonix 14.
INFO: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/torproject.list does not exist.
INFO: version of the 'tor' package: 0.3.2.9-1~d80. jessie +1
As I mentioned Whonix 14 is still in testing. One of the reasons it has not been blessed stable (aka blocker) is the method used to configure the Whonix VMs for release 14 is broken. (soon to be resolved)

Downloading a new Whonix is preferred because its a fresh image with no user modifications and less room for errors: 1 download vs. many commands for manual upgrade Whonix 13 -> Whonix 14
