* 129.0a1 (2024-07-03) - snap



**Affected versions**
* 129.0a1 (2024-07-03) - snap
* 128.0 - snap
* 127.0.2 - snap
* 115.13.0esr - snap 

	


**Tested platforms**
* Affected platforms: Ubuntu 24, Ubuntu 23 (snap)
* Unaffected platforms: macOS, Windows 


**Steps to reproduce**
1. Install a Firefox snap build.
2. Open Firefox snap and verify that the location works on Bing and Google Maps.



**Expected result** 
* Current location is displayed.

**Actual result**
* The `Your precise location could not be determined.` error is displayed.



**Regression range**
* I don’t think we can search regressions on a Snap package.

**Additional notes**
* Attached a screenshot.
* This issue does not reproduce with `129.0a1 (2024-07-03) tar.bz2`, `128.0b9 flatpak`, `or Firefox.deb 129.0a1 (2024-07-03)`.
* In the Firefox 128.0b9 flatpack build, the location is only displayed when requested a second time on Google Maps in a new session. The first time requesting location, it will show the `Your precise location could not be determined` error. This behavior also occurs in older builds (e.g., 124.0b6).
* The Browser Geolocation test from https://mylocation.org/ correctly shows the Longitude and Latitude on Snap builds.
* On Debian 12, the Firefox snap 129.0a1 (2024-07-03) works on Google Maps but only if the location is requested a second time in a new session. This also happens in the 128.0b9 Snap Firefox build. 
* I don't think this has something to do with bug 1905717 since it happens on all snap builds.
