There's probably not much I can do about it.

Have you tried with a fresh profile? Just move ~/.config/google-chrome out of the way before running Chrome.

Looks like a fresh profile did the trick. Thanks!

I could not reproduce this problem, but that might mean nothing.
I'd vote to leave this bug open for some time, for others to recognize it without searching "ALL " bugs.

Hmmm... the bug is back! Just took a while to surface again.

Did you maybe install some extension that broke it?

Anyway, as I said, there is likely nothing I can do here. Please report it upstream.
