Moving from traditional to atomic system, xdg-desktop-portal "filesystem=home" incorrect resolution

So, I used

cp -a

cp -a

to backup and restore my home directory and /var/lib/flatpak. I moved from mutable Fedora Workstation (GNOME) to Bluefin. For some reason, when I add a flatpak override

filesystem=home

filesystem=home

, the portal sends the app

/home/user/path/to/file

/home/user/path/to/file

which causes the app to see file not found. If I change the path, eg. in Firefox or Chrome to prepend

/var

/var

it suddenly sees the file. But this means that every single file is being incorrectly sent from the portal and doesn't resolve. Please help!

Solution

I needed to remove the Nautilus bookmarks and re-add them. The bookmarks pointed to /home instead of /var/home which caused the apps to look in an unreadable place
