Description mox 2024-06-04 21:55:38 UTC 
SUMMARY
If night color tries to change the color while a fullscreen wine/poroton application is open, it fails in a way that results in the enable/disable toggle in the widget to read Off/disabled, and the screen remaining full 6600K color temperature. This persists though any settings changes in night light, but does not persist through logout.

Still need to do some additional deliberate testing. Memory says this occurs even if night light is set of 'off'  in the widget toggle and the wine/proton app is open. And that it does not occur when the wine/proton program is not fullscreen. I suspect this may be more of a wine/proton-wayland support issue than a night light issue.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a fullscreen wine program open
2. Have the scheduled night color shift occur while full screen 

OBSERVED RESULT
The Off-On widget toggle fails to turn On. The options are Off-Disabled (or something to that effect) 

EXPECTED RESULT
Night night remains able to be toggled on and off with the widget.
