[Skype Web Control] Bug? Not loading on Chrome and Firefox?

See original GitHub issue

Bot Info

SDK Platform: .NET
SDK Version: 3.12.2.4
Active Channels: Skype, Web
Deployment Environment: Azure bot service, web app hosted on Azure VM.

Issue Description

The Skype Web control seems to have an issue on Chrome (63.0.3239.132) and Firefox (57.0.3). The chat window starts to load, refreshes twice and then ends up showing a white rectangle as below: This is the console log: SkypeWebControl.log

The same bot works fine in the Web Control on Edge (41.16299) however:

This also only appears to happen on browsers where the Web Control scripts have not been previously cached. Opening an incognito window still shows this issue.

Code Example

<html>
    <body style="background-color:black">
        <span class="skype-button bubble " data-bot-id=""></span>
        <script src="https://swc.cdn.skype.com/sdk/v1/sdk.min.js"></script>
    </body>
</html>

Reproduction Steps

Add Skype Web Control to a page
Make sure it’s not a cached
Open in Chrome, Firefox and Edge

Expected Behavior

The chat window to load and users be able to send messages

Actual Results

Shows a white rectangle
