Hello, when I'm on a website that could use my microphone or camera, I am not getting the prompt to ask for permission to use them. I have tried manualy giving the website permission in CTRL-I website settings. But that did not fix it. I have tried the same websites in google chrome, and my mic works then.

So, granting permission via "Tools -> Page Info -> Permissions" doesn't work?

Do you use frames on your page ?

Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page (i.e. no authentication or signing on required)?

No page info does not fix it.

I have been testing using this website which does work for me in Google Chrome. https://www.onlinemictest.com
