Description nick 2023-04-17 14:57:30 UTC 
As per title - Issue occurs on multiple machines / multiple users. All running CentOS 7.9, Cinnamon Desktop, kernel version 3.10.0-1160.80.1.el7.x86_64.

Running a snap revert to snap revision 265 (version 7.4.5.1) resolves the issue.

Here is the output from starting up:

Try a flatpak (see https://www.libreoffice.org/download/flatpak/ ) or a TDF build from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download-libreoffice/

Thanks, the flatpack works, but it will be a pain to change 150+ users over to using flatpak just for this application.
