Description
I suspect this is a similar issue to #1224 : when graphs are facetted vertically, and the facet labels rotated to be horizontal, the labels are cut off. (Where there is a legend, it overlaps; where there isn't, it's cut off entirely.)
p <- flights %>%
ggplot(aes(y=origin, x=dest, colour=origin)) +
geom_count() +
facet_grid(name ~.) +
theme(strip.text.y = element_text(angle = 0),
legend.position = "none")
ggplotly(p)

Research direction
Start by running the R reproduction in the issue and compare the behavior with issue #1224. Trace the facet-label rendering path used by ggplotly, then verify that horizontally rotated labels are fully visible and do not overlap the legend, both with and without a legend.
