Status: NEW

(GeckoView :: General, defect)

Description

[Jonathan Almeida [:jonalmeida]]

From github: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/19237.

Steps to reproduce

• Go to https://codepen.io/seppevectera/pen/mdRoebG
• Click "Start audio"
• In the Firefox notification: Choose "Remember this decision" and click "Allow".
• Click "Start audio + video"

Expected behavior

Firefox asks for permission to start the microphone and camera

Actual behavior

Firefox throws an error:

NotAllowedError: The request is not allowed by the user agent or the platform in the current context.

This only happens if permanent audio permissions have been granted, and you request both audio and video in the getUserMedia call.

Device information

• Device vendor / model and Android version: OnePlus Nord N10, Android 10 (OxygenOS 10.5.11.BE89BA)
• Firefox for Android version: Tested in 88.1.1 and Nightly 210425 17:01 (Build #2015806731)
