I too have had problems with F11 but then I had problems with other Fedoras.
Inevitably and virtually always it was because, for various reasons,  I 
had incorrect apps.
The only way I could fix issues was to yum uninstall offending apps and 
then yum install again and pretty well every problem went away.

For sound I uninstalled everything, all the sound files then uninstalled 
firefox and thunderbird then reinstalled.
Haven't had a problem with Firefox since updating.

My problem was an opposing version of something, can't remember what 
because such a lot of stuff got removed.
Lastly I yum uninstalled the kmod-nvidia and reinstalled, again opposing 
apps caused me grief.
I could not get other video cards to work in my machine so I stick with 
Geforce 8600 GT or better.

Everything works well for me now so I can only suggest that you may be 
experiencing similar.

I remember I had problems with the 64 bit kernel and apps so installed 
only 32 bit and have no problems at all -for now.

Not much help but my experience.
I enjoy the problems but sometimes am at a loss to know what to do to 
fix then and this is why I thank list members, they always have helped.
