Oculus Home overrides WebVR

I haven't been able to nail down a root cause and reliable path to reproduce but when trying to start a WebVR experience in Firefox the view in my Oculus Rift will fade to black like its going to go into the experience but then fades back to Oculus Home. This seems to happen randomly, but once its starts it wont stop until I close Firefox and Oculus Home and restart everything. This makes development and demoing really really annoying. I have seen on the slack channels that other developers are having the same issue. Can anything be done to fix this?

Windows 10 with Firefox

Hello greengiant83!

WebVR platform dev at Mozilla checking-in.

The Mozilla Bug entry for this is over here:


The Oculus folks have been very helpful and are looking into the patterns of our API usage now.

This particular issue ranks in our top priorities and will hopefully see a speedy fix.
