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
