Windows.Media.Capture.CameraOptionsUI causes COM error 0x887a0004

Question

I have been trying out the CameraOptionsUI sample for Windows Store apps. I am working on a Surface Pro 2 with Win 8.1

When I run the Javascript sample the moment I request the UI to show "Windows.Media.Capture.CameraOptionsUI.show(mediaCaptureMgr);" I get an error "The specified device interface or feature level is not supported on this system." . The error number is  0x887a0004, which is a COM error DXGI_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED.

Interestingly if I run the C# version of the sample it works.

Also if I take the code and deploy it on another Surface (in this case an RT) it works as well.

We don't have any reports of this occurring here. I'll ask our Surface guys if they can reproduce this.

NOTE: If I ask for code, please provide something that I can drop directly into a project and run (including XAML), or an actual application project. I'm trying to help a lot of people, so I don't have time to figure out weird snippets with undefined objects and unknown namespaces.
