Debian 11 (Bullseye), after an update (no upgrade) HLS streams stopped working. To reproduce:
1) sudo apt install surf
2) surf http://radio.xaq.nl/
3) mp3 and aac streams work, hls streams (e.g. BBC3, Radio Clásica RNE, the second and third icon) refuse to work. It worked well until these versions:

After an update HLS stopped working:

You should set this env var if you want native HLS support enabled. WEBKIT_GST_ENABLE_HLS_SUPPORT=1
Michael Catanzaro
Use MSE instead if you want something that works without environment variables. I don't think Phil is planning to bring back HLS.
