hopefully, it is an easy fix, it would be really helpful to solve this for the altTab community and users.

Maybe this is why my laptop goes sleep during telegram video calls on MacOS

This issue also affects https://contexts.co/ -- Telegram is no longer showing in the window switcher or app switcher.

According to another post in other repo, telegram is also not showing up in the XCode Accesibility inspector which may affect other applications: https://github.com/lwouis/alt-tab-macos/issues/2092#issuecomment-1307769225

Similarly, this also breaks the ability of Stay to reposition Telegram.

When tinkering with this in Contexts, Telegram appears as an "Apps without windows". So it seems macOS is unable to detect the window for some reason.

This issue still occurs in the latest version of the Mac App Store build ("9.4"), but downloading the website build (9.4.243050 Stable) fixed it for me.
