image of the issue note youtube music is open hence the + on the chrome window

SUMMARY
In XORG when you open a chrome app it opens in an isolated session.
On Wayland in comparison it opens in chrome itself

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Chrome
2. Open (for me music.youtube.com) a web app/page
3. Click on the 3 dots, select more tools and then create shortcut
4. Name it and check the open as a window box
5. Pin the new shortcut to the task manager bar
6. Launch the app


OBSERVED RESULT
Opens in Chrome itself and not under it's app icon, click on the launcher will open another session rather than bringing the currently open app to the front.

EXPECTED RESULT
Under XORG it opens under the app icon and displays a speaker in Chrome.

As an addendum youtube music in my case is still being opened in windowed mode just not associated with its launcher

Hi I have a feeling that chromium is working because it is either installed snap installed or flap pack installed so is locked down potentially.  I'll have a play with this and confirm for you.  This is definitely happening in the DEB chrome package though.
