Bug Description
Watching Widevine content (eg netflix, hbomax, etc) on the .deb package of firefox in impish has recently stopped working. Get a "The WidevineCdm plugin has crashed" message at the top of the browser window. Get the same thing when running in --safe-mode as well.
Appears to work fine on the snap package though.
