Clearly not reproductible here ...
You need to share more context, like snap info firefox and how you setup things ...

Amin, this look really weird, especially on a fresh 22.04 install that seems to be uptodate.

Do you try to download to ~/Downloads or to somewhere else? (e.g. to a folder that begins with a dot or to network storage etc.)

I can't reproduce this either, with latest stable Firefox snap (113.0-2) on Ubuntu 22.04. I tried with a few different HTTP pages and files, including http://detectportal.firefox.com/success.txt, and Firefox saved/downloaded them all just fine.
Seb, any ideas about this? Can you reproduce the issue?
The bug is lacking details so it's hard to have ideas about the issue. Having the answer to "what is the download directory" would be a first step.
Could you also do 'journalctl -f', trigger the issue and copy any message which had been printed there?
and what's the output of snap connections firefox?
