What did you change then, Alice? The setting doesn't have to be "about" Google to affect Google. Also you can always reset it to defaults and then apply and test your changes one at a time.

Refreshed the browser and re-reconfigured everything, and now it's all working. Weird. Not sure what happened, but it's fixed now.
