Details
Steps to reproduce:
I have events in my Google Calendar.
I have Thunderbird (currently 91.7.0, but it was the same with the previous version) on 2 different computers configured to access that calendar
- via Provider for Google Calendar 91.0.4 by Philipp Kewisch
https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/provider-for-google-calendar/ - on one computer via GData.
In both cases, the calendar is enabled for writing (i.e. not read-only).
When the alarm/notification for an event pops up, I dismiss it on one computer. Then on the other computer, if I dismiss this event, Thunderbird Calendar pops up the dialogue window: "discard my changes and reload" or "override the changes in the calendar".
(This by itself is a bit weird, but it is not the issue here.)
If both computers are using Provider for Google Calendar, there is no problem (except for the situation described in bug 1727123 for which the fix has not propagated to the 91 brunch release yet, afaik), and after choosing one of those options, the event alarm is dismissed.
If the 1st computer is using GData and the 2nd computer is using Provider for Google Calendar, it seems to work too (although I haven't done extensive testing).
If the 1st computer is using Provider for Google Calendar, and the 2nd computer is using GData, the alarm cannot be dismissed on the second computer.
Moreover, if I have both, GData and Provider for Google Calendar enabled on one computer for the same Google Calendar (so that I have the Calendar populated with 2 sets of the same events), - I get the same effect - cannot dismiss the alarm via GData, if I dismiss the event via Provider first, or if I click on "dismiss all" which should act on both alarms.
Actual results:
Alarm cannot be dismissed
Expected results:
The alarm should be dismissed.

Do you still see this when using version 102 or newer?
I saw it just a day ago, but I don't know what version it was: I just updated to 102.6.1.
I am not finding the update logs in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Thunderbird (Is there a different place where update logs are written?).

Thank you. It was 91.13 before today's update. So, no info on 102 yet.
