Should be fixed in 5.27

(In reply to Fushan Wen from comment #1) > Should be fixed in 5.27 I don't believe it is fixed. I'm running 5.27.2 in Fedora 37 and when I have both Bitwarden and Spotify open (both Flatpaks) and I play music in Spotify, audio indicators in the task bar appear for both applications.

To clarify, that only happens in a Wayland session. In Xorg, it behaves as expected.
For me both X11 and Wayland audio indicator shows as expected. I suspect it's a packaging issue but I have no clue yet.
Yeah I'm still seeing this as well, with the Signal flatpak showing an audio indicator with Plex

I'm not able to reproduce this issue in KDE Linux, which currently ships git master Plasma and tons and tons of apps from Flatpak. Is anyone else able to reproduce the issue with the Plasma 6.5 beta (or final release)?

I'm not sure that I've seen it myself in a bit (or maybe I'm just use to seeing it and disregarding it). I'll try and pay better attention over the next few days but it may have been fixed prior to 6.5 but not properly closed out (I'm on 6.4.4).
