There is a workaround though. Create a /usr/bin/launch-flameshot file
for example:

$ cat /usr/bin/launch-flameshot
#!/usr/bin/env bash

bash -c -- "QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland flameshot"


Then edit the Exec=flameshot line in 
/usr/share/applications/org.flameshot.Flameshot.desktop to instead be 
Exec=/usr/bin/launch-flameshot. For some inexplicable reason it now works.
