Same issue in our office. All users with O365. It started over this past weekend (07/09/2022). Only Excel files when doing a Save As, Browse. Some users experience it with File Open.
All other applications work without issue. Nothing in event viewer shows any problems.

We have noticed this in our environment when upgraded to 2208. Any updates on a fix?
I can confirm that version 2211 build 15831.20190 fix the problem on all Office 365 apps that I am aware of (Excel, Outlook, Powerpoint).
(Strangely, version details differs from general version showed under account: Microsoft® Excel® pour Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2211 Build 16.0.15831.20098) 64 bits)
We are under current channel.
The build you mentioned is actually v2210, the "fixed" version is 2211, build 15822.20000. I'm currently running (on my workstation) v2301, build 15929.20006 which also doesn't seem to have the issue, I'm set to the Beta channel.
As far as stable channels go, v2211 is only available on the "Current Channel".
So I thought Microsoft finally fixed this. Earlier this week, Office installed some updates. I am not 100% sure what the build was, but I recall something like V2211 16.015831.20098. Again, I could be missing a number or two. Anyway, with that build, the connecting to server issue was fixed.
Today, 12/9/, Office again installed more updates. Rebooted computer just to be clean. Now build is 15726.20202 and back to having the connection issue again. oh man!
We are on Current Channel.
Just some info.
Hope this gets fixed soon.
I assume if this issue is fixed in Beta, it'll be rolled out to us civilians at some point shortly, without the need to change the Office update channel?
If so, I will probably wait for a main channel release, to avoid upsetting our security officer.
