I had also the same problem. LibreOffice (6.3.4.2 snap1), installed by "Ubuntu Software" on Ubuntu 18.04 could not open documents attached to e-mails (Thunderbird) and even those on the web. It had also problems in linking with Zotero. I removed it completely and installed the one from the LibreOffice site (https://www.libreoffice.org/donate/dl/deb- x86_64/6.3.4/en-US/LibreOffice_6.3.4_Linux_x86-64_deb.tar.gz). LibreOffice now works without any problem, and it opens much faster.

I have the Libreoffice snap package installed. When I want to open the document from Thunderbird, I see the Libreoffice splash screen, and then a dialog stating "/tmp/mozilla_<user>0/<filename>.docx does not exist." The same dialog appears when I navigate to the folder in Files and want to open it. When I copy the file to my desktop, however, I can open it without problems. I guess the source of the issue is confinement, that the Libreoffice snap can only access files from $HOME. But this breaks the case where thunderbird creates a temporary copy in /tmp.
