The one in /usr/bin/gnucash is NOT the flatpak one, so you must have a
partially installed / broken version of GnuCash installed on your system.

The command to launch the flatpak one is

$ flatpak run org.gnucash.GnuCash

And you can pass additional arguments to it. SO for example:

$ flatpak run org.gnucash.GnuCash --version
  GnuCash 4.4
  Build ID: Flathub 4.4-4
