matplotlib widgets fail to load

Describe the issue

Get a line like [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D at 0x7f610447e140>] when trying to plot, and an 'empty' plot which seems to have a toolbar of button, but no content.

developer tools console has:

Failed to fetch ipywidgets through the "jupyter.widget.control" comm channel, fallback to fetching individual model state. Reason: Control comm was closed too early

報告された Python、ipympl、JupyterLab、ipywidgets のバージョンで空のプロットを再現し、その後、manager-base.js:291 でのウィジェット読み込み失敗と、有効になっている jupyter-matplotlib 拡張機能から調査を開始してください。JupyterLab で matplotlib ウィジェットが読み込まれ、報告された通信チャネルエラーなしにプロットの内容とツールバーが表示されれば完了です。
