Ubuntu 18.04 clean install. Installed chromium snap from stable channel and found the problem (browser worked till I entered my google account and saved password on keyring).
Fond this bug (from https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/call-for-testing- chromium-65-0-3325-146/4390/21 ), changed to candidate and the problem is gone. Now chromium starts without problem.
