Multicast tests are failing on MacOS bots in chromium. Does anyone know where to dig and is it possible to fix at all?

I have been working on https://github.com/explainers-by-googlers/Multicast-in-Direct-Sockets

We have some multicast capabilities on ChromeApp deprecated platform, but those tests are disabled there, so there are currently no browser tests for Multicast.

Here is the exact place where test is failing - https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:chrome/browser/direct_sockets/direct_sockets_apitest.cc?q=-f:%5Eout%2F%20-f:%5Egen%2F%20-f:%5Esrc%2F%20MAYBE_UdpSocketMulticastExchange#:~:text=IN_PROC_BROWSER_TEST_F(ChromeDirectSocketsUdpIsolatedWebAppMulticastTest%2C-,MAYBE_UdpSocketMulticastExchange,-)%20%7B

Also I experienced a similar problem on Web Platform Tests, where multicast does not work on all desktop platforms.

Looks like at least one net/ multicast test was disabled on OSX relatively recently (https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40189274). I don't think you'll find much multicast expertise on this list. net/ is primarily an HTTP stack for the web.
