I can confirm this is a problem in Linux / FF 31 as well.  Firefox is
considerably more rigid in its security restrictions than Chrome.  If I
recall correctly, in previous versions of FF, adding an exception for https
would allow websockets connections to succeed as well.  Apparently not
anymore.  We'll need a valid certificate on the server for Firefox to work.
