The dialog that Peter mentions at step 2 of the bug description is oxide
asking for permission to access the camera/microphone, it’s not an
apparmor/trust-store thing. If the user denies access, oxide shouldn’t
even try to access the camera/microphone (regardless of trust-store
permissions), so that sounds like a bug in oxide. Maybe something that
changed recently in chromium?
