I'm not able to reproduce this on Plasma 6.3.2, Solus
Keeping this open so someone else hopefully can reproduce

That's the GNOME file dialog, which means this is a GNOME issue.

You can make Firefox use the KDE dialog which doesn't supper from this issue using the instructions here: https://community.kde.org/Distributions/Packaging_Recommendations#Firefox_configuration

Please report this upstream to the GNOME folks. Thank you!

Ah that makes a lot of sense now as this was happening in gnome 3 also, thank you!
