Describe the bug

In Firefox, when setting up Alby anew, it reports it cannot connect to local LAN instance of LNDHub (details below). I get one of two error messages. First, most common is Connection failed. Is your LNDHub URI correct? API error (http://lndhub.local:3000): . Secondarily I have seen : Error: API error (http://lndhub.local:3000): (yes, there is a blank space after the final colon in both cases)

However, it works fine in Chrome using the same connection string.

lndhub://<useridpart>:<token/pass-part>@http://lndhub.local:3000

Logs (bland):

Steps To Reproduce

Run LNDHub on LAN; hostname lndhub.local served by mDNS. serve directly on port 3000; no TLS

Set up new wallet in BlueWallet. Copy connection string (lndhub://...)

Load fresh instance of Alby in Firefox Set password to get through Select LNDHub Paste connection string. Fails with above error(s) in Firefox; Works fine in Chrome

Expected behavior

I expect it to connect correctly; or report an actionable error (rather than a blank string)

Are you working on this?

No

@dienummer Can you verify that you can open http://lndhub.local:3000 in Firefox?

Since it's exactly the same codebase for the firefox / chrome extension there could potentially also be a problem with resolving this local domain?

Can you maybe follow the steps described in here and try to see if you find the root cause of this problem?

Would be interesting to inspect both the network and console tab.
