Public bug reported: getUserMedia doesn't ask for permission to use microphone, it simply says "NotFoundError: The object can not be found here."
To reproduce: 1. Go to https://mozilla.github.io/webrtc-landing/gum_test.html 2. Click on the "Audio" button Result: Error message "NotFoundError: The object can not be found here." Expected result: Firefox should ask for permission to use the microphone This happens only with the Ubuntu build of Firefox. The same version downloaded from the Mozilla website works fine and is not affected by this issue. Using a clean profile doesn't make a difference. The same problem happens on a different computer with different versions of Ubuntu and Firefox. I'm attaching an apport report just in case. Affected Firefox version: 52.04b 64bit (52.0~b4+build1-0ubuntu0.14.04.1) installed from firefox-next PPA Ubuntu version: Trusty (14.04.5) Build that works fine: https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-52.0b4-SSL&os=linux64&lang=en-US and in the other computer: Affected Firefox version: 51.01 64bit (51.0.1+build2-0ubuntu0.16.04.1) installed from official repo Ubuntu version: Xenial (16.04.1) Build that works fine: https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-51.0.1-SSL&os=linux64&lang=en-US ** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "ff.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1663349/+attachment/4816008/+files/ff.log ** Tags removed: get ** Description changed: getUserMedia doesn't ask for permission to use microphone, it simply - says "NotFoundError: The object can not be found here."
