The workaround is to set driver_version=132 / --driver-version=132.

Quite possibly a new version of chromedriver will fix this automatically in the near future.

In the meantime, I'll try to find a better workaround than pinning the driver version.

Looks like the issue is related to hidden, built-in Chrome extensions, like in #3231.
This is something fixable from the SeleniumBase side (without waiting for chromedriver updates).

The hidden extension this time is "Google Hangouts":
chrome-extension://nkeimhogjdpnpccoofpliimaahmaaome/background.html
(Reconnecting chromedriver to Chrome somehow makes that become driver.current_url)
