[v2.10.1] `onProgress` callback is not firing when the video is playing

Be sure to search for your issue before opening a new one.

Current Behavior

onProgress callback is not called when the video is playing.

Expected Behavior

onProgress callback should be called periodically with the playback information when the video is playing.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Use version v2.10.1 of react-player (issue does not exist in v2.10.0

2. Add a simple player as follows that plays a webm file

   <ReactPlayer
     ref={playerRef}
     width={1024}
     height={768}
     muted
     playing={true}
     url="https://example.com/video.webm"
     onDuration={onDuration}
     onProgress={onProgress}
   />
   

3. The onProgress callback is never called

Environment

• URL attempting to play: Any url containing a video file (I used a webm file)
• Browser: Chrome
• Operating system: MacOS

I can also confirm the issue with "react-player": "2.10.1" and React 18 using react-scripts.

I managed to temporarily fix it by removing React.StrictMode.

Minimal reproduction: https://codesandbox.io/s/naughty-wildflower-pqvest

Expected behavior: it should log the onProgress events

Actual behavior: it does not log the onProgress events

Temporary fix: remove <StrictMode> and now it does log the onProgress events.

Looking forward to the proper fix 🙂

When can we expect a release on the next version of react player
