3) What I expected to happen is using any version of LibreOffice snaps from
Ubuntu Software app (i.e. https://snapcraft.io/libreoffice ) works as it does
as if I used the default install of libreoffice. Specifically, when I open the
GNOME Files program via the icon on the bar on the left, I have an smb share
already added via "Other Locations". When I use the default libreoffice install
version as per below, when I attempt to open a file in Libreoffice Calc, the
share is visible and I'm able to open files, edit, save, close, etc.:
apt-cache policy libreoffice
libreoffice:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 1:7.1.6-0ubuntu0.21.04.1

Packages
1:7.1.2~rc2-0ubuntu2 500

4) However, when I completely remove all things libreoffice-* via
command line, then install the snap version, the smb share is not
visible.
It's confirmed all packages associated with default install are removed,
and only the snap is installed. I've tried completely removing each snap
and trying a different version (e.g. stable, candidate, edge) but it's
the same problem.
I'm guessing it's something borked with the libreoffice-gnome
integration between the snap and the GNOME environment but that's a wild
guess.
I tried the snap package as the default install Draw kept crashing
opening a particular file, and was hoping to work around it by
installing later snap version.
WORKAROUND: Use default install of LibreOffice.
