I removed the snap version and installed it directly. Now everything is working. Also, the app runs more performant. Maybe it make sense to remove the snap version entirely, because it makes on every Ubuntu version with snap problems. And this problems are for sure related to snap. Also some other apps, like Inkscape for example, are not able to work properly with snap. Ubuntu will for sure lose a couple of users with keeping to snap.

So, I can confirm, that the versions out of snap work as expected.

can confirm this. apt install seems to work!

Glad it is working for you two. Closing this as it is probably an issue with snap. Most snap installations seem to work, but there is certainly a combination (sometimes with wayland but not only that) that make it not behave. Maybe one day we find the reason and/or this issues become less often.
