When you open a new link, the program (evolution here) will -af ter sme
indirections- launch a new copy of your browser (here, brave), which
would detect it is already running and open the link on a new
window/tab in the exiting window.

The flatpak sandbox may be confusing brave.

Your problem seems quite similar to

but in the opposite way.
Are you also using wayland?
