Current Behavior / Reproduction: 
Could not set value for AlternativeBrowserArguments LBS policy

Expected Behavior:

Julian, any thoughts on this one?

@vkhabarov: can we confirm if this worked with older Chrome versions? When did it break?
@jayhlee - Customer is having this issue on Chrome version 65.0.3325.181. As I understand, they did not try setting up AlternativeBrowserArguments before. 
LBS Version is 5.4.

In either case this bug is fixed on the current beta channel (v5.5) and the fix will make it to the stable pretty soon. I would advice to test the fix on the beta to make sure it covers the observed issue.
Hi, do we have an ETA when the fix will make it to the Stable channel? (Question from customer who raised this bug). Thanks
We are verifying with a customer one other issue that is supposed to be fixed with this release and once we have the confirmation (hopefully this week, or early next week) we will promote 5.5 to stable.
