[Bug 881310] [NEW] Proxy settings don't work with firefox

 

Public bug reported:

When setting up to use a proxy server in the network settings dialog, firefox is unable to connect anymore: Stays in "connecting ..." / spinning loading indicator but nothing happens.
Entering the proxy settings in firefox directly works, while setting it to "Use system settings" will cause the mentioned effect.
