I cleanly installed Jammy Jellyfish today on my Thinkpad X1 Yoga 3rd Gen and can confirm, that with the snap version of firefox neither the gnome on screen keyboard is triggered nor can one scroll with touch. After removing the snap version and installing the deb version from the Mozilla Team PPA both issues work out of the box
