Slack audio settings and file download don't work inside ElectronIM

This is probably an architectural issue but it seems that some Slack functionality does not work inside ElectronIM.

For example, trying to setup and test my bluetooth headphones failed. Wrapped slack did not see the device.
Trying to download a file from slack doesn't work either. Instead is spawns a browser page and requests to login into the web interface.

I have same probleme on Skype (no audio devices) using a snap installation (snap install electronim). But after installing it using npx (npx electronim), it works. I think it is because of snap security confinement. I have try to install using --classic without success:

$ sudo snap install --classic electronim
Avertissement : flag --classic ignored for strictly confined snap electronim

Using ElectronIM from a Snap installation (especially on a distro different to Ubuntu) causes many problems which are hard to resolve.
