Cannot drag tab to detach it from the current window

After updating to the current version of my OS(listed below) I can no longer drag a tab to detach it from the firefox window. Doing so drags a preview of the tab, but it is never separated from the current window. I can drag it to an already existing window to move tabs from one window to another, but not to create a new window from a single tab.

OS: Manjaro Linux 24.0.0 Wynsdey Linux kernel version: 6.6.30-2-MANJARO (64-bit) Desktop Environment: KDE Plasma 6.0.4 KDE Framework version: 6.1.0 QT Version: 6.7.0 Display Server: Wayland Firefox version: 125.0.3 (64-bit)

Interesting... Never had that issue before.

Did you try with Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode?

Try downloading Firefox from Mozilla. Download, unzip, and run firefox-bin from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release

Do you have the same issue under a different user account?

What happens in X11?

Just verified on my distro version and all is well.
