SUMMARY Some applications which include a systray icon load before the system tray is ready if added to "Autostart" (plain xdg-autostart, no systemd). Most reliable reproducer here is 'opensnitch-ui' (go, QT5). This one is especially annoying since it becomes impossible to open the UI without manually killing the 'opensnitch-ui' process first, because it has an "already running" check and the only way to raise the running instance is via the missing systray icon. Starting the application manually after plasma has fully loaded works as expected, and the systray icon appears. If added to autostart as a script, a 'sleep 2' before calling the application also results in the systray icon appearing correctly. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add opensnitch-ui to autostart 2. relog 3. check for running process and systray icon OBSERVED RESULT 'opensnitch-ui' is running, but has no systray icon and can't be raised. EXPECTED RESULT Autostarted applications with a systray icon get a systray icon. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Gentoo Linux 2.15 KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2 Kernel Version: 6.6.51-gentoo-dist (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I have only observed this in a wayland session, and can't reproduce it under X11. Hesitant to tag it as such though, as I can't prove it's wayland specific and not just a race whose timing is influenced by more general differences in wayland vs. x11 startup. This might be a regression of 425315 ("fixed") and it's many duplicates, though that bug is rather old and pertains to QT5. Please mark it as such and reopen that one if this is the case.
