On an Ubuntu 22.04 (newly updated from 18.04) box I got Firefox and
Chromium browser back to using the good, system SaveAs dialog box
instead of the horrid (((search box focus grabber and almost impossible
to change file name from the default))) dialog box by doing this:

sudo snap install snapd

This version of snapd, 2.38.3, apparently overrides the apt-installed
snapd version 2.38.

That the snap version of snapd wasn't installed ("snap list" did not
list it) was the glaring difference between the bad box and a laptop
that did not have the problem.

I should note: widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.file-picker needs to be put
back to the default, 2, from 0.
