Snap stable version unable to update kube config in home dir

[HontoNoRoger]

The stable version v0.0.25-7-g0efe989 of kubelogin from Snapcraft does not have access to ones home directory, therefore is unable to update ones kubeconfig:

kubelogin convert-kubeconfig -l azurecli --kubeconfig ~/.kube/config
Error: unable to load kubeconfig: error loading config file "/home/companyname/myusername/.kube/config": open /home/companyname/myusername/.kube/config: permission denied

ll ~/.kube/config
-rw------- 1 myusername myusername 31377 Feb  1 13:49 /home/companyname/myusername/.kube/config

cat /etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home.d/snap-homedirs
@{HOMEDIRS}+=/home/companyname

It is not blocked by apparmor or anything as we extend the basic homedirs to our subfolder hierarchy.
Maybe only connections for accessing the home dir is required on the snap as the confinement is strict?
Tested on Ubuntu 20.04.

Not using --kubeconfig ~/.kube/config will just terminate the command without error, but it also didn't change the file. Probably it expects one inside the confined file space of the snap, not being able to find one and completing silently.

ack'ed. I repro'ed it on my ubuntu vm.
