I never got it to work in 20.04, so I don't know whether your fix ever
made it in.

I have just installed Jammy Jellyfish (22.04), and can confirm snaps
don't work in it when using autofs and nfs mounted home directories.

The prior work around was just never use any snap applications, which
was OK as nothing important was in snaps prior to 22.04.

This is harder in 22.04 as firefox is distributed as a snap, and so
firefox doesn't work in 22.04 if you have autofs NFS home directories.

Work around is to use a different source for firefox,
https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2022/04/install-firefox-deb-
ubuntu-22-04/ but I don't know whether that will get security updates as
quickly, so this is a serious problem.
