Created attachment 156590 [details] Game + extra Wayland icon in Task bar I am creating a bug report for the first time here, so sorry if I posted it in the wrong section. I am not that technically experienced to be able to figure out under what category this issue fits. SUMMARY *** Some games will create an extra Wayland window (with an Wayland icon) in the Task bar. An example of this would be: Solasta: Crown of the Magister(https://store.steampowered.com/app/1096530/Solasta_Crown_of_the_Magister/) If I remember correctly, Returnal(https://store.steampowered.com/app/1649240/Returnal/) did the same thing I've attached the Screenshot in the report. When I mouse over the game icon, a preview of the game appears above it. When I mouse over the Wayland icon, no preview appears. Also nothing happens when I click on it. I've noticed this extra window/icon only on KDE Plasma. *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start the effected games 2. Instantly new Wayland window will spawn in the task bar SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: EndeavourOS, KDE Plasma Wayland (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0 Qt Version: 5.15.8 Kernel Version: 6.2.0
Sherlock Holmes Chapter One has this issue as well (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1137300/Sherlock_Holmes_Chapter_One/)
Are they native Linux games?

Created attachment 165036 [details] extra wayland windows showing side-by-side with battlebit that window don't make sense, it read "opengl renderer" when the game is running with DXVk, also steam engine simulator also runs using DXVK and don't show that window

My wife was able to reproduce this with Rimworld (distributed by Steam, played through Proton 8.0-4) last week, but when I asked her to check again today, it had stopped happening.
Probably this: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/issues/2997 Can be solved by adding `GST_GL_WINDOW=x11 %command%` to the launch options
Looks exactly like it. Thanks a lot!
