"All Applications" showing only deb version of Evolution

SUMMARY
A few weeks ago, "All Applications" would show both the deb version and the flatpak version of Evolution. Now it shows only the deb version. The flatpak version still appears in the list displayed by going to "Settings" and clicking on the right arrow to the right of the flathub repository. Other applications' flatpak versions show similar behavior, e.g. PDF Arranger, but some applications, e.g. Akregator still show both versions in "All Applications"

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Discover
2. Configure flathub as flatpak repository.
3. Select "All Applications" from Discover navigation pane.
4. Enter *Evolution* in the search field.

OBSERVED RESULT
The list includes only the deb version of Evolution.

EXPECTED RESULT
Both the deb version and the flatpak version should be included.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Ubuntu Studio 24.04.1 LTS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.12
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0
Qt Version: 5.15.13

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
See attached screenshot. I would have added at least two but can't figure out how.

Thank you for the bug report!

However Plasma 5.27.12 no longer receives updates or maintenance from KDE; active versions are 6.4 or newer. Please upgrade to an active version as soon as your distribution makes it available to you. Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one.

If you need help with Plasma 5.27.12, please contact your distribution, who bears the responsibility of providing help for older releases that are no longer receiving updates from KDE.

If you can reproduce the issue after upgrading to an active version, feel free to re-open this bug report.

Thanks, but I don't find this enough of an inconvenience to leave the LTS track. With any kind of luck it will be fixed next spring. ;-)
