I saw a post from December, but starting a new thread as I'm not sure if this is isolated to me or if anyone else is having this problem. It's been happening since the last core update for Rift :'(
I should add more clarity. When launching any VR content from any WebVR compatible browser (e.g. Latest version of FireFox, Chrome, Edge, etc.), I get a message such as "headset not detected". Rift is working normally for games, videos launched locally within an Oculus App, etc. I checked all VR settings in the browsers (e.g. About:Config VR settings in Firefox). All browsers give a similar message, including "VR drivers detected, headset unavailable".
I figured out a solution. I had to download a fresh version of FireFox (either Nightly or Quantum, both worked) and use a fresh profile. Although my about:config files look identical, there must be something different in the profiles preventing WebVR from working properly. Now I simply keep a copy of Nightly for WebVR and Quantum for standard browsing. Not the best solution, but works. Each using their own profile.
