Does this reproduce in Chrome 105+? Chrome 80 is quite old and not officially supported.

@JoostK This does not reproduces in Chrome 105+
The problems is that a lot of our users can not update Chrome above v80 yet.
Are you sure that Chrome 80 is old? It released in april 2020 (3 years ago). It does not seems too old soft in my opinion.

In a world of evergreen browsers, that's definitely old.

Looks like workaround will solve my issue:

It is happening for me on Chrome Version 123.0.6312.123. Is anyone having issue with the same version?

Same problem with Chrome version 126.0.6478.61
