Issues with Cosmic Dock (application shuffling)

[SanderBlom]

How did you upgrade to 21.10? (Fresh install / Upgrade)

Upgrade form 21.04.

Related Application and/or Package Version (run apt policy $PACKAGE NAME):

` sander@t14-sander:~$ apt policy $PACKAGE gnome-shell-extension-cosmic-dock gnome-shell-extension-cosmic-dock: Installed: 70~ubuntu1pop0~1635889396~21.10~acb33c1 Candidate: 70~ubuntu1pop0~1635889396~21.10~acb33c1 Version table: *** 70~ubuntu1pop0~1635889396~21.10~acb33c1 1001 1001 http://apt.pop-os.org/release impish/main amd64 Packages 1001 http://apt.pop-os.org/release impish/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status sander@t14-sander:~$

Issue/Bug Description:

Before upgrading, when pressing an icon on the dock it would shuffle the windows if it was multiple instances of the same application. Now it only open and closes the same window.

Steps to reproduce (if you know):

So if I have two instances of chromium, one with YouTube and the other with GitHub. If I press the chromium icon on the dock, it would automatically switch back and forth between YouTube and GitHub for each click before upgrading. After the upgrade the behavior changed.

Expected behavior:

I expect the windows to shuffle instead of opening and closing only one of the windows.

Other Notes: If this has been changed on purpose, is there any way to change it trough settings or editing a config file?

Thank you for the report. I'm seeing this as well. This seems like it's probably the same issue as https://github.com/pop-os/beta/issues/264.
