Update of bug #44298 (project octave):

                 Summary: GUI Ccrl+O opens in wrong directory (1 above pwd) =>
GUI Ctrl+O opens in wrong directory

    _______________________________________________________

Follow-up Comment #1:

Actually, Ctrl+S doesn't always get it right either.  Here is a more reliable
sequence indicating that the synchronization of the working directory is not
being communicated to the GUI dialogs.

1) run-octave -f
2) pwd
3) cd ..
4) cd ..
5) Ctrl+O

The directory shown will be the original directory from step 2.

I suppose that there is a separate memory for what the last directory used for
a file dialog was.  Maybe that's okay, but it surprised me.
