Setting the ozone flag to auto fixes the issue; didn't happen of previous versions of vivaldi-snapshot

Passing to Harvey for evaluation

Vivaldi is a proprietary browser we just have permission to repackage and distribute it. We have not made any changes that would suddenly cause this to occur so if Vivaldi is not setting ozone-platform to auto that is something Vivaldi should address.
