Hi! Thanks for the report. Unfortunately, this is a limitation with plasma 5 and the screen sharing portals, as it doesn't fully implement them. Not that it's much consolation until...

@niko-lay Interesting! I've reopened then to examine it, as maybe snapd is doing something fancy with the portals. Are you using X11 or Wayland? The only things I can see...

@johngaltwork thanks for the further info! I'm starting to think this is related to it not using portals correctly on X11.
