Copy and paste not working

Hi;

I'm using a Protonmail alias. When I copy my Hide-my-alias address in Protonmail using the Copy icon, the popup says Alias copied to clipboard it doesn't paste. Not sure if this is a Proton or FF issue. Looks like it's mot being copied.

More info:

Using Firefox

I clicked on my new HideMyAddress alias address, clicked on my alias copy icon, says copied.

It won't paste into the address field of a new email. Clipboard History is enabled. I can paste any History entry but not the alias I copied using the copy link next to the alias link.

To copy it to clipboard, I have to :

Open all alias' Sign back into account Highlight the alias address, copy Then it will paste

Tested with Brave browser:

Logged into Proton.me Copied alias and pasted into new email To address, it works.

Thanks for any ideas.
