Hello,
Are you able to reproduce this on Ubuntu Noble (24.04), and with the latest version of Firefox? If so, would you please also open a bug report upstream on Mozilla's tracker at https:/ /bugzilla. mozilla. org ?
Also, would you please double-check the system logs and also dmesg for any potentially relevant errors, such as AppArmor DENIED lines?
