Send document as email from Libreoffice no longer working

Hello. I've been using Thunderbird on Linux for many years and it used to be possible to send Documents as attachments (or as pdf) from within Libreoffice but this stopped working with an update over the last couple of months. Now an Thunderbird Composer window is opened and the subject is set correctly but there is no attachment. I've waited for a while to see if the problem would be fixed with a subsequent update but up to now there was no change. I'm currently on Thunderbird 102.3.3 I know the problem is not in Libreoffice because if I temporarily changed my preferred Email client to Kmail then the Kmail Composer window is opened with correct the subject and the attachment.

Any help or workaround would be appreciated. Thanks Con

This is a known problem which has been fixed, but the fix didn't make it to the current release version yet. I don't know when that will be the case, hopefully in the next update.

Many thanks, that's what I thought. Glad to know a fix is in the pipeline.
