This problem was solved in the newest version of fwupd.
The snap store currently has the latest version of fwupd, version 1.9.14.
LONG-TERM SOLUTION
Therefore, the Ubuntu repositories for 22.04 must be updated either to have the latest version of fwupd, or to replace it with the snap version (in the same way as Firefox does).
WORKAROUND
For people currently having this problem, the current solution is to uninstall the apt version fwupd (this is important) and then install the snap version of fwupd.
The Ubuntu 22.04 repositories have fwupd version 1.7.9. This is a badly outdated version that cannot cope with some of the newer updates.
(This doesn't affect all updates, and so it affects only some machines depending on the hardware being supported.)
EXAMPLE:
$ fwupdmgr refresh 196b2d79e79ce34 7cb86037f1
Failed to update metadata for lvfs: checksum failure: failed to verify data, expected 0a5a850327f8e8b
