Bug Description

I have a encrypted luks volume which is under lvm management. I mount it manually from a script.
It's mounted to /opt1
the libreoffice snap does not see this mounted directory; it is not part of the filesystem known to the snap.

The confinement system for snaps means that no snap will be allowed to read/write files outside of well-known locations, and /opt1 is not one of them.

The removable-media interface (https://docs.snapcraft.io/the-removable-media-interface/7910) allows access to files mounted under /media, /run/media and /mnt. Any chance you can mount your volume under one of those mount points?

Thanks Olivier, I changed my mount point (under /media) and it's working fine now.
