STR:
0) Sign Into FxA on Device/Web
1) See Location Indicator spin and settle
2) Location was correct once, then, when I invoked sound, it changed to incorrect location
3) I seem to be stuck in a state where device is now only being located, well, in the water

Will continue to try to repro to see how varied the results are in a sample size of 10 attempts.
Not blocking until I have a the above repeatable pattern.
A few of us can hit this when testing find my device.   nom'ing for blocking, since this is a highly dependent issue for the FMD feature.   We can't have the website be telling the user its 1 mile away from where it should actually be, else they'll be diving into the ocean looking for it.

Looking for help from the Geolocation team, as it's likely not FMD specific.

This can't block as we have little control over the location information or the configuration of the geolocation stack on FirefoxOS devices.

Summary: Location Is Either Incorrect or Jumps Around → FMD Location Is Either Incorrect or Jumps Around
There's not much we can do for areas not covered by the MLS database, but MLS results should not jump from good to bad. That sounds like a bug Garvan fixed in 1.4. I'm looking for that fix.
