Bug Description

What happen instead- firefox web browser which come preinstalled with 22.04 LTS can not read or apply the fonts which I kept in /.local/share/fonts folder. It only read font which installed in /usr/share/fonts. I don't want to install fonts into root directory. Applications like Google Chrome, LibreOffice can read the local installed fonts without any problem. Firefox snap can display the local directory fonts but can not apply them.
 firefox Version I use-
firefox:
  Installed: 1:1snap1-0ubuntu2
  Candidate: 1:1snap1-0ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 1:1snap1-0ubuntu2 500
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
OS- Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS 64 bit

Expected- Fonts in local directory can be read perfectly by firefox browser.
