what does Firefox use for audio output/playing

suppose you connect to an internet radio station or view a video (with audio) from a wed site like YouTube with a web browser like Firefox. you do this through a firewall that restricts inbound connects in most cases (it might have logic to let you do insecure file transfers with FTP).

there are multiple ways for a process to output audio to the local speakers or audio system. what does Firefox do? which of many APIs does it use?

i am wanting to capture the audio Firefox, or any client program, is trying to play to me. normally Firefox is work fine for me. i want to set up (implement) a way to send that audio to another computer that has a special audio system attached.
