It might need D-Bus for the system-tray. You can check by either using --ignore=nodbus on the CLI or by adding ignore nodbus to ${HOME}/.config/firejail/qtox.profile. If the latter does not exist you'll need to create it.

yup. I have put ignore nodbus into qtox.local & it's working properly.
Thanks

@Neo00001 I think I briefly saw a part of your reply via email that mentioned something about using XDG portal. There is important work in progress to offer more finegrained D-Bus control in firejail (see #3326). But that's in testing, so you cannot use that with 0.9.62. Just some info I thought might be of interest, because the workaround here (ignoring nodbus) might stop working with a future Firejail release. With 0.9.62 the best you can do is what you already did.

If you want to migrate automatic after the update of firejail, you can use this.

#!/bin/bash
sed -i -E \
    -e "/^nodbus$/c\\dbus-user none\ndbus-system none" \
    -e "/^ignore nodbus$/c\\ignore dbus-user filter\nignore dbus-system filter" \
    ~/.config/firejail/*
