When I 'start a conversation' in Firefox Hello, should the box on the lower right corner of the screen immediately show me a video of myself?

All I get is a grey conversation box on bottom right, but no video.

If I follow my own link, I am told I am the first one there, I am asked for permission to use camera and then I get a video of myself, but if a second person tries to join he is then told there are already two people in that conversation.

If I let the second person follow the link first, he is told he is the first one there, but then if I follow the link, I am told there are already two people involved in the conversation.

If I don't follow the link, the other person doesn't appear in the grey box, I don't appear in the grey box, and nothing happens.

The grey box referred to above just says 'conversation 2' (or whatever I name it), it then has a minimise, expand, and a close button. Below that, an exit, and mute video and audio options (both are unmuted), a speech bubble allowing me to name the conversation, and a banner saying 'Invite someone to join you.' and Email Link and Copy Link buttons. Unless I follow my own link, that's it.

Am I missing something obvious here?

Apparently I am on the most up to date Firefox version, if that helps.
