Integration between Linux app and Snap Firefox

That suggests the extension and desktop app are communicating, but some security check fails.
When on Ubuntu 22.04, I tried replacing the snap version of Firefox with the apt version as per the support page. I'd already spent a long time confused before eventually figuring out that apt install firefox was just installing the snap instead. When I finally got the apt version installed, my security key wouldn't work with it. Eventually I just gave up and re-installed the snap version, accepting that I'd have to use the extension and desktop app separately. I won't be attempting the apt version again given Ubuntu 24.04 is pushing snap packages even more.
It is annoying to have to log into both the extension and the desktop app separately, especially as the app experience is much better for editing entries.
