Could you enable update logging (with `app.update.log` set to `true`)
and check the the browser console whether there is any error visible? If
so, what is it complaining about?

Ha. They should be both left side (that the one is on the right one is a
Noscript bug). But, seriously, we could think about doing that. Do you
mind filing a bug in ou bug tracker?
