This seems to happen when executing code from the devtools console or snippets.
Workaround:
You can execute the code below and focus on the window within 3 seconds, by clicking somewhere, or just by pressing <tab>.
e.g. from snippets
Ctrl-Enter
<Tab>
e.g. from console
Enter
<Tab>
setTimeout(async()=>console.log(
await window.navigator.clipboard.readText()), 3000)
