This is fantastically cool decision to ship pre-installed Firefox web-browser
as Snap.
It can't be started on freshly installed Ubuntu MATE 22.04 LTS. Very smart and
efficient idea. Very useful for internet kiosks.

I can confirm this bug on Ubuntu MATE 22.04 LTS. Should you plan to fix
it?

Bug description:
I'm using Ubuntu 16.04.
The guest session cannot execute snaps, because of a permission error.
The LightDM's guest session AppArmor profile is not allowing access to /snap
and other needed files and folders.
