What happened?

When the video player is consuming a streaming video (HLS, m3u8 such as the red bull stream in the example), the notification lacks the previous behavior seen in at least 3.5.0 where the progress bar indicator was shown and the progress would be shown.

Now what I see on the notification is just an empty progress bar or no progress bar at all.
E.g.
