[Bug 1970884] Re: Firefox does not support wayland backend

[Alfredo Matas]

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected jammy wayland-session

** Description changed:

  Previous versions of Firefox worked with the wayland backend, with the
  latest version ( 99.0.1 ) wayland is not available and it has to use
  xwayland. This breaks the screen sharing and also the fonts are not as
  sharp as using the wayland backend.
  
  Nightly version 101.0a1 without snap works fine.
  
  ```
  Gtk-Message: 09:20:51.884: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
  Gtk-Message: 09:20:51.885: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
  [GFX1-]: glxtest: Could not connect to wayland socket
  ```
  
  Tested on Ubuntu 21.10 and 22.04 with the latest updates.
