Can't open zotero://select or zotero://open-pdf links on Linux

I am using the beta (currently 6.0.19-beta.4+2db90511f), on Linux.
I've checked mime settings and they are set correctly.

When clicking or trying to open either zotero://select or zotero://open-pdf link from any application including the browser, Zotero is started if not already running or its window is activated otherwise. However Zotero doesn't go to the item or the pdf page (and the specific annotation) as expected. Links are created by the Export note for the annotations of the build-in pdf reader.
  • Just wanted to report that I have the same problem.
    When trying to open for links of this type "zotero://open-pdf/library/items/ID?page=100", the pdf opens in the pdf viewer (in this case Okular), but not at the right page, but the page I last opened the pdf.

    Jumping to the right page did work in previous versions of Zotero! (but I don't know in which version it broke)

    I'm running 6.0.18 on Pop_OS
  • This might be related: I tried to bind zotero://select links to fzf on Windows, which causes Zotero to freeze.

    When I directly try to bind the start zotero://select link to fzf, Zotero starts up if not already running, but does not jump to the item and also permanently freezes most of the time.
    When I open the link through a python shim, it works, code here:
