Well, there is a new development. The TMP developer suggested that I try the toolbar button. See page 2 of the following thread:
http://tmp.garyr.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=15745

Bizarrely, the button works.

Why the button should work but not the menu option (the options are
identical), I don't know.

(So, I no longer have the Session Manager add-on.)

Title:
  Global Menu Bar Integration conflicts with some Firefox add-ons

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  SUMMARY

  The Firefox add-on Tab Mix Plus has a session manager that allows you
  to manually store and retrieve previous sessions, including
  automatically-saved sessions when Firefox closes normally or crashes.

  When Canonical's Firefox Global Menu Bar Integration add-on is
  enabled, this prevents restoring a previous session. No error message
  is given.

  The Global Menu Bar Integration add-on should not affect other add-ons
  like this.

  HOW TO DUPLICATE

  1. Install Tab Mix Plus, enabling its session manager.
  https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/

  2. Open two or more tabs.

  3. Close Firefox.

  4. Re-open Firefox.

  5. Try to restore the previous session: Tools > Session Manager > Last
  Session. Although the session is listed, nothing happens.

  Now, disable the Global Menu Bar Integration add-on and repeat the
  steps. This time, the last session will be restored.

  VERSIONS AFFECTED

  I have tested this on:
  * Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit
  * Ubuntu 11.10 64-bit (fresh installation with no add-ons other than the defaults and Tab Mix Plus)

  I have been unable to test on Ubuntu 12.04 (alpha) as I cannot get it
  to run.
