Hi,
I was about to open a similar bug report for the same issue.
Your system information
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
When receiving a friend’s message, a sound can be heard and the (previously closed in my case) friends window opens in its configured workspace, but as long as I do not switch to that workspace, no notification appears. Once I do switch to that workspace, notifications start appearing, and the friends window seems to start processing some sorts of events¹.
Once that workspace has been switched-to and the friends window has been displayed at least once, as long as the friends window is not closed, subsequent notifications appear immediately after receiving a message (as expected) even if I am on a different workspace at that time.
In case this is relevant, here is the statement I use in my i3 config to move the friends window to a different workspace:
# Enabling and disabling floating tricks the window into not resizing itself. Sometimes.
for_window [title="Liste de contacts"] move to workspace number $ws9, floating enable, floating disable, resize set width 678 px
Steps for reproducing this issue:
Same as above
— ¹ Events such as a friend connecting or disconnecting, a friend launching or closing a game, etc... This is visible because the window starts redrawing a slightly modified version of itself in quick succession between each processed event.
I think I have the same or at least similar issue. I don't receive notifications from incoming chat. The chat window doesn't even open up sometimes, and even if I open friends I don't see that there's an unread message. Once a chat window is open, I do get the notifications. I don't use separate workspaces/activities. I'm on Arch but KDE+Wayland. Using beta: 1707518866
Same thing happens to me. Can't exit Steam from the tray icon, until I switch to the workspace reserved for Steam that I have. Arch Linux, i3wm

Steam related things don't seem to execute unless I'm on the workspace the steam window is in (I'm using i3wm). This means that when friends message me, I don't receive any notifications or toasts. When I switch to the workspace that the friends windows is open, I can see it seemingly receive all the events (messages update, I get notifications, all at once). Same thing with game updates, which don't happen even in the background (even though I have the option enabled) unless I switch to the library window. This affects games starting up as well. If I start a game from command line or from the steam taskbar icon context menu, the game doesn't load until I switch to the workspace the game is in.
