Do you still see this issue? how are you exec/running the .desktop file?

I originally just clicked on the .desktop file and opened it that way. This broke, so I couldn't even click .desktops or shortcuts of them on my desktop.

Unfortunately, I switched to Wayfire and a different Arch-Based distro so I can't verify if this is fixed.

I am gonna set this to WORKSFORME since it does appears to be working for you.
