I have very recently begun to see this bug; A workaround is that if you start a new Firefox from a shell on your desktop, then running “firefox” from a shell, even a different shell window, will work fine. I haven’t been able to find out why.

Yes, that is exactly what I am experiencing. You cannot start FF from the Desktop and then start new windows from a shell. Unless that shell was directly started from the desktop. So it must have something to do with the environment or process tree.

  I found what I think was the problem for me: From the desktop, I was starting Firefox with the “--no-remote” option. If I remove that option, then it works. I did not use that option when starting in a terminal, but if I do, then the same problem appears.
