Browser: 'chrome' was not found on your system or is not supported by Cypress

[sergeyKhristenko]

Current behavior

We're using cypress 4.12.0 and recently updated browser image to cypress/browsers:node12.14.1-chrome85-ff81. Started to sometimes seeing this error on CI:

Can't run because you've entered an invalid browser name.

Browser: 'chrome' was not found on your system or is not supported by Cypress.

Cypress supports the following browsers:
- chrome
- chromium
- edge
- electron
- firefox (Cypress support in beta)

You can also use a custom browser: https://on.cypress.io/customize-browsers

Available browsers found on your system are:
- firefox
- electron

Desired behavior

Cypress can find a browser.

Test code to reproduce

Versions

cypress 4.12.0
docker image cypress/browsers:node12.14.1-chrome85-ff81
OS linux
CI jenkins

We also see this problem in our CI. We're using version 5.6.0 of Cypress and Chrome 86 in a Linux Docker image. The issue pops up very inconsistently, but it makes no sense, as nothing about our infra is changing.
