Thanks for testing. Just for the record:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1735300
Hopefully this will be eventually fixed.

While it looks quite well with timescale 30000, it is not uncommon
for video tracks to have timescale 25 or so. For example, the
test video in the ticket linked above uses timescale 24. With
such a timescale, resulting desync will be much more noticeable.
