DOMException: Failed to execute 'getGamepads' on 'Navigator': Access to the feature "gamepad" is disallowed by permissions policy.

We are randomly getting this error while loading the game

DOMException: Failed to execute 'getGamepads' on 'Navigator': Access to the feature "gamepad" is disallowed by permissions policy.

Issue is happening only on Facebook. Facebook seems to be adding gamepad=() in Permissions-Policy which breaks the game.

This seems to be happening with many other games on Facebook. Has anyone found any fix or workaround for this issue?

we have the same problem. occurs more often in Chrome. it started suddenly about 12 hours ago without any action on our part.

if we clean the cache, the game will start once, but after rebooting, the error will appear again
