support-seeking-unbuffered-position.js expects 30 timeupdate events after seeking to an unbuffered position. Fired at 4Hz, this will take 7.5s. The test has a 15s timeout, which leaves only 7.5s to load the media's metadata, run the loadedmetadata handler, and complete the seek initiated from that handler. Given a high-enough latency link, the test can time out before it has a chance to pass.

This may apply to other tests too, but this is the only one that regularly fails for me.
