Correction: This does not seem to be true anymore.

snap set system homedirs=/afs/math.uni-hamburg.de/users

works for Ubuntu 22.04.

The Firefox snap does start with this setting. We have very limited 
experience with this setting. Kerberos authentication does not work in 
Firefox snap, which is a known problem (independent of AFS).

Best,
