Hi all,

I think there is a problem with loading a GUI from json in version 5.28.0.

```auto
VM76:1 Uncaught SyntaxError: "undefined" is not valid JSON
    at JSON.parse (<anonymous>)
    at XMLHttpRequest.<anonymous> (babylon.gui.min.js?t=1665992019713:1:286823)

```

To reproduce the bug

> **[Babylon.js Playground](https://playground.babylonjs.com/#SWI883)**
>
> Babylon.js playground is a live editor for Babylon.js WebGL 3D scenes

I might be wrong but I think @carolhmj fixed it today so it should be all good by tomorrow ?
