There's /etc/profile.d/snapd.sh which adds entries and then
/usr/lib/environment.d/990-snapd.conf which is consumed by systemd-
environment-generator. However, if at any point of the session session
XDG_DATA_DIRS is overwritten then you obviously will not see desktop
snap applications.
Given that it works for everyone else, I would suspect either a local
configuration issue, or something related to Budgie. I haven't checked,
but if you need to install snapd package manually using apt in the live
session, then you will also need to logout/restart the session for the
settings to take effect.

Title:
All snaps are not visible to the end-user
Status in Ubuntu Budgie:
New
Status in snapd package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
In 25.04 for several weeks, no snaps such as firefox are visible in
the menu.
snap list displays the snap
snap run firefox runs the snap, the snap itself is missing from the
menu.
checked in /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications and all the .desktop
files are there
echo $PATH returns
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin
This is a regression from noble/oracular where snaps are visible and
work out of the box.
Other observations - in the live session, snaps are also not visible. The
snap installer does not launch either - you have to double click the desktop
icon to launch. Again a regression from oracular.
