Bug Description
I've observed a regression in snapd on 18.04 daily where launching URLs from confined snapped applications no longer works.
## Expected behaviour
Clicking a menu entry or button that links to a URL should open the link in my default browser.
## Actual behaviour
No link is opened.
## Steps to reproduce the behaviour
* Install Ubuntu 18.04 (daily) or Ubuntu MATE 18.04 (daily)
* snap install gimp
* snap run gimp
* Mouse to Help -> GIMP Online -> Developer Website
* The link doesn't open and an error like the following is to sent to stdout:
Error org.freedesktop
Error org.freedesktop
## Ubuntu version
Ubuntu 18.04 (daily) and Ubuntu MATE 18.04 (daily)
## Snapd version
snap 2.30
snapd 2.30
series 16
ubuntu 18.04
kernel 4.13.0-17-generic
