Description

A clean install of Ubuntu 22.04 LTS with the latest version of Google Chrome as of February 2023 such as 110, watchAdvertisements doesn't work in the sense that no device is seen. There is no error on the page https://googlechrome.github.io/samples/web-bluetooth/watch-advertisements-and-connect.html, it just says:

```
> Requested AutoCamera`
Getting existing permitted Bluetooth devices...
> Got 1 Bluetooth devices.
Watching advertisements from "AutoCamera"...
```

The same page on Android or on Windows 10 (even with an old Google Chrome) is working, it lists the advertisements and successfully connects to the device.

Once again, a live ISO of Ubuntu 22.04 LTS with google-chrome.deb installed shows up the problem.
