Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

Steps to reproduce

1. Start a streamed download (any live.log for a task that is still ongoing on https://treeherder.mozilla.org/jobs?repo=try)
2. Click on the details button on the download in progress snackbar or go to the downloads screen through the menu

Expected behavior

The download should be visible as downloading.

Actual behavior

The download is not visible as downloading until after a while, despite the system notification already showing the file as downloading. Sometimes, the download initially shows up but then disappears almost instantly.

Closing as WORKSFORME.
