Scribd embed -- private documents

I'm trying to embed a Scribd document, but I'm getting the following error:

The given URL does not match any known oEmbed providers.

I've tried the URL copied directly out of Scribd's "Share -> Copy link" option, and I've tried the src URL in the old site's iFrame embed, with no luck. I *suspect* the problem is that the document is private. The original embed uses a parameter that Scribd accepts and delivers the content:

https://www.scribd.com/document/123456789/document-title-here?secret_pas...

Is it possible that Media is stripping that query string off the URL and getting blocked when it tries to access the document?
