Icon missing #179

Closed ctron closed 2 years ago

ctron commented 3 years ago

Since the most recent update, the application icon is gone, and replaced by the generic Xorg logo.

agurenko commented 3 years ago

Yeah, you can see briefly upon opening and closing the app that it uses the correct icon, but it stays generic during the use.

bsmith75 commented 3 years ago

The latest version of the .deb package has the same issue, so it's not an issue with the flatpak.

I'm on elementary OS 6 and have Spotify pinned in my Deck. When I open it, it doesn't a window marked as Spotify like it used to. Instead it opens a new unnamed window with a generic gear icon:

I guess this is related.

I saw that someone managed to get it working well on snap is that correct? If so it might not be an upstream issue after all.

Erick555 commented 2 years ago

The original report in that thread came from ArchLinux user who didn't use flatpak so it's might be not flatpak issue either. Linux systems are so diverse that it's very hard to make apple-apple comparisons.

Maybe someone can try workaround:

I found a workaround for the X11 icon in the task switcher issue which works for me on KDE. Click "Full screen" at the bottom-right corner, and optionally click it again to return to the normal mode. The icon becomes the normal Spotify icon.

I just tried this workaround, and it seems to restore the icon. However:

I noticed that the icon shows up eventually. Setting the current title in the description. However, it gets stuck too. Meaning, it doesn't update the title any longer. The workaround doesn't refresh the title.
I also notice, when closing spotify, that a second window appears briefly. Fully black. Is closes quickly and spotify exits.

I am using Fedora 35 with KDE.

To revert the walkaround by @tomaswarynyca, use the following command:

flatpak --user mask --remove com.spotify.Client

And then update the packages.
