Zotero Connect selective failure to connect to Zotero application

1443234995
Fail to import .bib with Z Connect due to "not open or unreachable" but saving the page by clicking the extension icon works

1) With Zotero running in the background, in dblp.org select any article, select export bibtext, select "download as .bib"
2) -> Zotero Connect triggers, answer "OK"
3) get error "This item could not be saved because Zotero is not open or is unreachable. Please open Zotero and try again." (no errors logged in Zotero Connect preferences)
4) click on Zotero Connect icon, the page is saved to library succesfully (no issues with "not open or is unreachable")

Issue is identical with both Zen Browser 1.21.16b and Firefox 155.0.1 on Omarchy. Zotero version 10.0.2 (Zotero Zotero 140.15.0esr)

    The site is serving a bot-challenge page in place of the BibTeX file, so the Zotero app just gets an HTML page. We'll see what we can do, but this may not be fixable.
