Can confirm with git master. 

It is selective about which applicaitons it will work on.

For me it didn't work on LibreOffice Math. Another user on 6.2 beta release confirmed it on Fedora Rawhide as well.

Extra info:
This could be related to missing appdata.

Writer and Calc work for me and they have:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.0K 2024-08-07 09:20 /usr/share/metainfo/libreoffice-calc.appdata.xml
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.4K 2024-08-07 09:20 /usr/share/metainfo/libreoffice-writer.appdata.xml

But there is no entry for math.

The bug report as written is a duplicate of Bug 477022, which is fixed in Plasma 6.2.

If it's still not working for individual apps, that's a separate bug, and quite possibly a packaging or app metadata issue, or a series of them. The way this works is that Discover is launched with an appstream:// URI, so if the app doesn't offer one, that's not gonna work.
