Some applications cause global menu to be not cleared when switching to application that does not export a global menu. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open firefox (does not export global menu) 2. Open rambox ( https://github.com/saenzramiro/rambox/ ) (does export global menu) 3. Switch to firefox. Global menu still displays menu from rambox. Few other things to note - rambox global menu is not clickable for some reason. Switching global menu to a button does allow opening the menu but clicking any of the items does not work. Rambox is electron application so it might be related. P.S. i do have appmenu-qt4 package installed, if it is of any relevance.

Rambox is electron application so it might be related. This part is a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=376476 (which is an Electron bug). The original issue reported here (global menu not updated) is probably caused by the same Electron bug.
Ah, and the Electron bugreport is https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/8455
Upstream Electron issue, yeah. :)
