I can confirm #3 I've had the same behaviour on 2 very different PCs with fresh installs of 22.04 Desktop since May 2022 affecting: Chromium Version 101.0.4951.15 Edge Version 104.0.1293.47 Chrome (installed for testing, same problem)
I can confirm #6 Installing xdg-desktop-portal-gnome appears to have resolved the issue on both machines for Chromium and Edge These machines were running Bionic previously and this problem did not exist. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970148 Title: Brave & Chrome browsers freezes on download and print to pdf Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Whenever any file is downloaded, the browser will freeze.
