Thanks for the report Joe. If I understand correctly, you're saying that
it looks like a very recent regression, introduced by
https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox.hirsute/revision/1476
?
If so, could you hand-edit /usr/bin/firefox to comment out the line that
exports MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND, and after restarting firefox confirm whether
the issue is gone?

Title:
Opening links results in "Firefox is already running, but is not
responding"
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Since the latest package release enabling wayland, I often get the
"Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To use Firefox,
you must first close the existing Firefox process, restart your
device, or use a different profile." message when trying to open links
from other applications (eg geary, slack) instead of having the link
open in the existing firefox window.
