Hey everyone, first of all, I'm so happy to be back on Zorin Pro. I try other distros for a while and basically always come back to Zorin. I'm getting old, have medical issues, and just done tinkering. Zorin is the best.
Issue: I cannot figure out what to put in Flatseal to allow Proton Pass flatpak app to access the clipboard using wayland. I'm on a vanilla install of Zorin 18.1 Pro.
Any idea? Google failed me.
Try to play with the settings in flatseal for "socket".
There are X11, X11 fallback and Wayland.
I'm not sure what you need to get it to work, but you can play with those three settings in various combinations to test. Start with X11 and Wayland enabled.
Another option you have is to switch your system to Xorg. Perhaps then the clipboard works. Logout and at login click on your username then a cog wheal appears at the bottom right corner. There you can switch between Xorg and Wayland.
If you have still problems you could try it with the .deb version from the homepage of proton pass.

@Forpli may have the good answer you can try to switch to Xorg, Wayland is known for annoying clipboard problem
Thank you for the suggestions! I kicked the Flatseal settings around and could not get it to work. I decided to stay with Wayland so I downloaded/installed the official DEB installer file from Proton Pass. Everything works fine with the DEB.
