I think I already answered you on Support, but let's answer it also in public 🙂 : I was able to reproduce your issue, and was able to solve it by setting preNavigationHook: 
const crawler = new PlaywrightCrawler({
  preNavigationHooks: [async ({ browserController }) => {
    await browserController.browser.contexts()[0].grantPermissions(['clipboard-read']);
  }],
  proxyConfiguration,
  requestHandler: router,
});
const crawler = new PlaywrightCrawler({
  preNavigationHooks: [async ({ browserController }) => {
    await browserController.browser.contexts()[0].grantPermissions(['clipboard-read']);
  }],
  proxyConfiguration,
  requestHandler: router,
});
and then by calling in router: 
router.addDefaultHandler(async ({ page }) => {
  const text = await page.evaluate(() => navigator.clipboard.readText());
  ...
});
router.addDefaultHandler(async ({ page }) => {
  const text = await page.evaluate(() => navigator.clipboard.readText());
  ...
});
Since this is Public Actors channel please next time for asking development questiong use #crawlee-js instead.
