New windows are not always opened tilted.

Description:

Issue Summary: Yabai does not always tilt new windows. Closing the application and re-opening it usually solves the issue. This problem seems to occur randomly and has been observed with multiple applications such as Chrome, Outlook, Spotify, and MacOS Calendar.

Steps to Reproduce:

Open a new application.
Observe that the window does not always tilt as expected.
Close the application (close, not minimize) and re-open it.
Notice that the window now tilts correctly. If it does not, repeat step 3 and it should work after a 2-3 tries max.

Expected Behavior: New windows should always tilt as configured.

Actual Behavior: New windows sometimes do not tilt, and the issue is resolved by closing and re-opening the application.

Environment:

Yabai Version: yabai-v7.1.3
Operating System: macOS Sonoma 14.7

Additional Information:

The issue appears to be random and not specific to any particular application.
No specific steps have been identified to consistently reproduce the issue.
My yabai config file:

# bsp, stack or float
yabai -m config layout bsp

# When a window is splitted horizontally, the new one goes to the bottom (or right with vertical
# split)
yabai -m config window_placement second_child

# padding/gaps
yabai -m config top_padding 12
yabai -m config bottom_padding 12
yabai -m config left_padding 12
yabai -m config right_padding 12
yabai -m config window_gap 12

# mouse settings

# place mouse in focused windows
yabai -m config mouse_follows_focus on

yabai -m config mouse_modifier alt
# left click + alt = drag windows
yabai -m config mouse_action1 move

# right click + alt = resize windows
yabai -m config mouse_action2 resize

# move a windows in the middle of another windows to swap them
yabai -m mouse_drop_action swap

# Disaple specific apps (not managed by yabai)
yabai -m rule --add app="^System Settings$" manage=off
