SUMMARY No option to start Elisa in system tray. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set Elisa as autostart app. 2. PC starts and Elisa window is launched. OBSERVED RESULT Elisa window is shown. EXPECTED RESULT Elisa should start in system tray if option is selected. Perhaps a command line option ex. "elisa --tray" SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon 5.22 KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.84.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel Version: 5.11.0-25-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11

Actually, I think it would be much better if you can also add option to launch minimized to task bar (as an alternative to system tray). Unlike a small monochrome icon in system tray, I see a colorful Elisa icon in task bar displaying progress of the currently playing song in addition to the audio mute toggle overlay icon, and a preview onmouseover.

I personally would prefer the system tray icon in monchrome or colored just as long Elisa is opened from the system tray instead of starting a new instance when Elisa's desktop icon is clicked or launched via shortcuts.
Akregator application has an option to autostart in system tray if you add --hide-mainwindow to the autostart properties. Unfortunately this does not work with Elisa (yet). Maybe can copy code from it. Such function or a separate option in application settings would be much appreciated. Thanks.
