I tried many ways like: Install "Gstreamer plugins from the bad set", Installing ubuntu-restricted-extras, Toggle DRM, Turn of Use hardware acceleration, Install FFmpeg. But nothing works. Please help me.

Are you using a web browser, a media player, other? What does it say in the "system check page"? Supposedly it should list the requirements...– ChanganAutoAug 22, 2021 at 12:34

@xralf given that this post is for 20.04 and 18.04 is beyond standard support I would not think your bounty is going to get any solutions that work for the end of support release.– Thomas Ward ♦Nov 25, 2022 at 22:22

Have you installed the developer pack for FFmpeg? After installing libavcodec-dev you should be able to watch the videos and hear the audio correctly:
sudo apt install libavcodec-dev
This works for Firefox and Edge. It should work for other browsers as well 👍🏻
In my case I had all the necessary codecs already installed. Instead I needed to enable DRM: https://support.brave.com/hc/en-us/articles/360023851591-How-do-I-view-DRM-protected-content
Enabling Widevine Widevine is disabled by default after installation. It can be enabled or disabled at any time by toggling of the component in brave://settings/extensions (Menu → Settings → Extensions → Widevine):
