[BUG] Sample preview changed behavior after update to v1.1.0

[daniel-bogdoll]

Describe the problem

After updating to v1.1.0, when I click on a sample, it does not show it anymore:

Only when I click on the "+" in the top-left and select "Custom" -> "Sample", it works again. Seemed not to be an issue when run in a Notebook.

System information

• OS Platform and Distribution (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 22.04): Ubuntu 24.04, with Chrome 131.0.6778.108
• Python version (python --version): 3.12.3
• FiftyOne version (fiftyone --version): v1.1.0
• FiftyOne installed from (pip or source): pip

Other info/logs

Once clicked, the issue is gone, even after restarting the session. Have not tried restarting the browser/OS.

the issue is easy to fix, so it works again for me :) It's just confusing to see a gray screen when you click on a sample.
