Works fine on Italian build on OS X, so I'd assume it's only Linux (I can confirm the issue in my VM).

Comment 2

[Francesco Lodolo [:flod]]

It's also a recent regression (~a week). I was using a build from August on the VM and it worked before the last update to 2015-08-25

I don't think so:
* It still works if you're in the page. If you move to the URL bar (CTRL+L) it stops working.
* It worked for me in a previous build from August.

It might not be that recent as I thought. Have another VM, and build from 2015-08-13 was already affected.

Agreed, this appears to be a dup of Bug 1176929.

Does seem to be a dupe of Bug 1176929, mind changing bug status Pascal?
