The following workaround worked for me in scope of Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon (6.0.4) wayland experimental session (mintupdate 6.1.0):

  1. for proper Update manager tray menu position: quit from Update manager and then run GDK_BACKEND=x11 mintupdate-launcher
  2. for proper xapp-xn-watcher menus (e.g. steam tray menu, flatpak apps (running under x11 socket) tray menus) position: GDK_BACKEND=x11 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xapps/xapp-sn-watcher

It could be used in Startup applications GUI by creating startup items for launching mintupdate-launcher & xapp-sn-watcher (/etc/xdg/autostart/xapp-sn-watcher.desktop could be modified also) and rebooting.
