Kubuntu 22.04 (8.1.41)

After the installation wizard finishes, a web browser doesn't open automatically. It definitely left me hanging a few times since I wait for it to open.  
When I open the browser manually afterwards, I can continue with the commissioning.

I don't use Linux a lot, so this could be something I've missed. Any ideas? 🤷‍♂️

I use almost exclusively Linux, and don't recall it ever opening a browser for me, post-install. However, I don't often use the GUI installer, so not a large sample size.
