Hi, new NixOS user here.

Liking it so far but just hit an issue that I'm having trouble getting past. Pages in firefox cannot access my geolocation, even after I hit allow when the page asks for permission. Same with the default Gnome maps app, it just places me in a central location of my countrys capital (I don't live in the capital).

I've added the following to my configuration.nix file and rebuilt but it made no difference.

 # Geolocation
  services.geoclue2.enable = true;

  environment.sessionVariables = {
    # Allows geolocation in firefox
    MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND = "1"; 
  };

What am I missing?

Well, it gets the city right at least, and that's enough for me
