It breaks running under wayland, and unsetting WAYLAND_DISPLAY it works
fine:

  WAYLAND_DISPLAY= epiphany

Or switching to an x11 session rather than wayland also worked fine.

Does it work for other people under wayland, or just x11?

More specifically, I'm running a "sway (wayland)" session from sddm as
the login manager.
