Screenshot of Task Manager Applet

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download AppImage to use (e.g. Google Earth or Workflowy @ https://workflowy.com/downloads/linux/)
2. Set application to executable.
3. Launch application.

OBSERVED RESULT
Application launches, but instead of included icon for app, I see an XWindows (?) icon in Task Manager Applet. See attached image.

EXPECTED RESULT
Application launches, and Task Manager Applet shows correct icon.
