"Hardware acceleration unavailable" in Chrome when sandboxed

Hi,

I'm having an issue with Chrome and hardware acceleration.

When I run Chrome sandboxed, the hardware acceleration is unavailable.

See below a screenshot. On the left is Chrome sandboxed and on the right unsandboxed. You can see it says "Hardware acceleration unavailable" when Chrome runs in the sandbox.

This is a big issue because without hardware acceleration, any 3D rendering webpage is very slow. 

 

Anyone else has this issue?
