application menu doesn't open on ubuntu 21.10 (wayland, firefox 94)
Hello.
I am using Firefox 94 on ubuntu 21.10 using Wayland. Most of the context menus work perfectly, such as right-click on the web page and right-click on the tab bar and toolbar. However, the left-click menus on the "Application menu" button and extension icons don't open context menus. I would add that it seems that they actually open, but either the window is not refreshed with the menu, or they just don't show up for another reason, because when I click on the area where the menu should be, the browser opens a specific page or a window. I added a screenshot just in case, I hope my explanation was enough...
Thank you in advance.

Start Firefox using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
Are you currently using a version from the repositories of your Linux distribution? Try the Firefox version from the official Mozilla server: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
Yes, the problem persists when I start Firefox in a safe mode.
However, in the terminal, I get a lot of these messages:
"###!!! [Parent][RunMessage] Error: Channel closing: too late to send/recv, messages will be lost"
I don't know if they have any connection to my issue though

This could be a problem with WebRender or hardware acceleration in Firefox. You can try to disable WebRender to see whether this has effect.
You can disable WebRender via these prefs on the the about:config page to see if that has effect.
- gfx.webrender.enabled = false
- gfx.webrender.compositor = false
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
I had these options turned off already...
Try downloading another copy of Firefox and run it from the folder. Do not sign into your Firefox account and see if you have the same issue.
