[Bug 1724705] Re: Firefox error: "DRM: Failed to create and initialize a MediaKeys object"

[Jeremy Nation]

Using Firefox 61.0.1 provided by Ubuntu, using Ubuntu 16.04, with a new
Firefox profile: https://shaka-player-demo.appspot.com/ redirects to
https://shaka-player-
demo.appspot.com/demo/#asset=https://storage.googleapis.com/shaka-demo-
assets/angel-one/dash.mpd;lang=en-US;build=uncompiled and, after
enabling DRM and waiting for the Widevine plugin to install, fails with
a yellow bar at the top that says "The WidevineCdm plugin has crashed."

Using Firefox 61.0.1 downloaded from
https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/61.0.1/linux-x86_64/en-
US/firefox-61.0.1.tar.bz2, using Ubuntu 16.04, with a new Firefox
profile: the same steps happen but the plugin doesn't crash at the end.

This will be the last update I provide unless a maintainer responds and
asks for more information.
