Steps to reproduce:

Expected results:
I created a thread on the kde reddit here and someone suggested the issue was the way Nvidia uses memory when shutting down. They gave this link Someone else, a KDE contributer, suggested this was a firefox bug and should be reported.

I couldn't reproduce this issue on my end, I tried on Ubuntu 20.04 on Firefox Nightly 96.0a1, Firefox 95.0b4 and on Firefox 94.0.1.
Could you still reproduce this issue if you try on a fresh profile?
You can find more troubleshooting options here: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/wiki/support/troubleshooting
Thanks.

Thanks for the report! Firefox 94 uses EGL instead of GLX on X11 with Mesa drivers. For Nvidia, EGL is still restricted to Nightly and early Beta. Suspend&Resume with EGL on Nvidia will be fixed with Nvidia drivers 470.82 and 495.44 and a patch to Firefox. No patch has been merged yet.
If you need a workaround, open about:config, set gfx.x11-egl.force-disabled to true and restart Firefox, but please don't forget to revert this change in a few weeks.
