Bug Description

I'm on Ubuntu Studio 21.04 with KDE Plasma 5.21.4 and Frescobaldi 3.1.3 from the repos.

When I go to the Preferences, under Lilypond Preferences, I tried to add a folder to the include path. When I click Add, the dialog seems to be looking for a file rather than a folder. The heading of the dialog says Open File, and it won't let me click Open in any folder. No files show up within my folders in the dialog even the Filter is set to All Files.

It should let me choose a folder to add to the include list.

Did some more testing:
- Issue does not happen when launching frescobaldi with sudo, but the setting does not apply to normal user
- Issue does not happen in GNOME (tested with Ubuntu 21.04)
- workaround: add line to ~/.config/frescobaldi/frescobaldi.conf in the [lilypond_settings] section- include_path=/home/ubuntu/Downloads, /home/ubuntu/Music
