For some reason, I'm not able to hear any sound from WebM videos anymore. I've already checked other WebM format videos and it contained sound/audio but no sound on this site. Is there a possible fix for this?

You might have muted E621. Right click the tab and see if the "Mute site" is checked or says "Unmute" now.

No, it still didn't work sadly

When you play a video with sound here, does sound register in other areas? Like a speaker icon on the tab (for Chrome), or on the volume mixer.
Try playing it in an incognito window.

Yeah it shows up on the volume mixer. A weird thing I discovered is that other sites that contain WebM videos contain sound but when it comes to this site, there's no sound/audio.

It works on incognito mode but not on a regular window
That really does sound exactly like you have either muted e621 somehow or other, or else redirected it to a different sound output. What browser are you using?

The fact that it works in incognito is a big clue. If an extension is causing it, maybe that extension is not allowed in incognito, so the interference goes away.

I looked over my extensions, which are mainly adblock add-ons, and I don't see any problems within those extensions that are causing this issue. I do have a Volume extension as well but that's mainly for higher sound quality
Another thing to keep in mind is that there are a lot of posts which have no sound. Check type:webm sound_warning, can you hear those? (Actually some recent posts seem to not try to be super ultra loud moans and noises for a change, try post #2894396 specifically, that one has music)
Also, hover over the volume icon and make sure it's not all the way down.

It finally works! I went into the post you suggested and now I can finally hear sound, thank you so much!
Problem solved everyone, I can finally hear sound/audio again.
Huge thanks to everyone who tried to help me during this situation <3
