PayPal Express Checkout Requiring Site Login on Firefox

[devonto]

When clicking on the "PayPal Checkout" button from the mini cart or cart page and using Firefox, you are directed to the customer login page.

Preconditions

1. Magento 2.1.1
2. Guest checkout enabled
3. PayPal Express Checkout enabled

Steps to reproduce

1. Use Firefox (currently testing in safe mode on v50.0.1
2. Add product to basket
3. From the minibasket click on the PayPal logo

Expected result

1. Redirected to PayPal site to log in and complete transaction

Actual result

1. Sent to customer login/register page on the site (/customer/account/login/?context=checkout)

This is working as expected on Chrome and Edge.

Hi @devonto, we cannot reproduce this issue.

Tested on Magento 2.1.3, Firefox 50.1.0.

Please, specify more details: debug.log, error log from browser console, etc.
