This is what we currently have set. Ubuntu's default Firefox overrides the default homepage so this sets it back to the default. But you get the same bug if you set a different webpage for broser.startup.homepage. (Ubuntu Mate uses http://start.ubuntu-mate.org/ ) I also duplicated this bug with Firefox on Windows.

$ cat /usr/lib/firefox/ubuntu-gnome.cfg
//
pref("browser.startup.homepage", "about:home");

$ $ cat defaults/pref/all-ubuntu-gnome.js
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);
pref("general.config.filename", "ubuntu-gnome.cfg");
