Public bug reported:
WebMIDI does not work when chromium is installed from snap package.
However, it works when installed via apt install.
Chromium version: Version 93.0.4577.82 (Offizieller Build) snap (64-Bit)
Channel: stable
OS Version: Ubuntu 20
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Execute in brower's console
if (navigator.requestMIDIAccess) {
navigator.requestMIDIAccess({sysex: false})
.then(m => alert("WebMIDI ready")) .catch(m =>alert("WebMIDI failed"));
} else {
alert("Sorry, no WebMIDI support in your browser.");
}
What is the expected behavior?
alert: WebMIDI ready
What went wrong?
alert: WebMIDI failed, WebMIDI cannot be used at all
Without the catch-clause the error message is:
Uncaught (in promise) DOMException: Platform dependent initialization failed.
