Thanks, https://gist.github.com/bionade24/78dbdfce5f9fa1695f3c88ee3ba245ed#file-gistfile1-txt-L2841 looks like a line to ponder. I looks like Steam isn't able to connect to xdg-desktop-portal, which is odd when combined with your note that other uses of xdg-desktop-portal are working.

As a basic sanity check, can you see if the xdg-desktop-portal system package is installed?

I detected those contradicting lines, too. Only xdg-desktop-portal-kde is installed, not xdg-desktop-portal. I just rechecked, when I go to Settings->Storage->Default Storage Location -> Browse Folder Dolphin opens just fine.

Thanks for checking, that makes this issue https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/78625.

Closing as a distro packaging issue.

I just installed xdg-desktop-portal and now another non-Dolphin window spawns:

When xdg-desktop-portal.service is masked, steam falls back to the internal file explorer. Wouldn't it be possible to act the same here? It's hard to figure when xdg-desktop-portal-kde is installed and the filebrowser portal (dolphin) works that a package is missing.
