Testing on Ubuntu 22.04. Screen sharing in Wayland sessions is *working*
for the Firefox snap but not the Chromium snap and not the Chrome deb
either.

Actually that's expected for Chrome/Chromium because they used Xwayland
by default so can't access the screen. The weird thing is that running
Chrome on native Wayland does still have the bug:

  google-chrome --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-
platform=wayland

Since it's working in Firefox though, and the same package versions are
in 21.10 and 22.04, it doesn't sound like the bug should be assigned to
those packages.

** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

** Changed in: pipewire (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

Title:
  Wayland Screensharing broken in Ubuntu 21.10

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in pipewire package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in xdg-desktop-portal package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Freshly installed Ubuntu 21.10, screen sharing does not work with any
  browser, tested the following options:

  - Firefox snap
  - Firefox deb
  - Chromium snap
  - Chromium flatpak

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to 
https://www.webrtc-experiment.com/Pluginfree-Screen-Sharing/#7325517390736006
  2. Select to share the whole desktop in the xdg-desktop-portal
  3. Notice the orange screen share indicator in Gnome-Shell but actually 
nothing is shared in the browser.

  This should be handled high priority since this is a critical feature
  during the pandemic.

  Filed against ubuntu-meta since I don't know exactly which package to
  blame, whether it's pipewire, xdg-desktop portal or some problem
  directely with mutter / gnome-shell, please reassign accordingly.
