Can you use maps.google.com and click "Your location" as the second site?
google.com doesn't always ask for geo location

[srirambv]

Yes using maps.google.com as second site on the same tab still shows the permission bubble and clicking allow detects correct location.

google.com doesn't always ask for geo location

This is not true for muon browser. It shows location permission notification every time the page is opened unless allow/deny is selected

[srirambv]

Discussed with @darkdh.

1. On clean profile, google search shows location based on ISP
2. Clicking on Use precise location prompts the permission bubble.
   Click allow shows exact location based on ISP
   Click on deny, shows Location unavailable
3. Same behaviour on Chrome and FF as well

Muon b-l has the same behaviour but irrespective of location tracked by ISP it prompts for location access.

Closing the issue as its the same behaviour on Chrome (version)
