Tutanota Flatpak ignores "run on system startup" setting

[ThracianKnight1907]

• [x] This is not a feature request (existing functionality does not work, not missing functionality). I will request features on forum or via support.
• [x] I've searched and did not find a similar issue.

Describe the bug

Basically the title. Using Tutanota v. 3.78.2 from flathub, and it won't run on startup despite setting the relevant option it to "yes".

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to 'settings'
2. Set Tutanota to run on startup

Expected behavior

Tutanota runs on startup

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Fedora
• Desktop Environment, if applicable (on Linux): Gnome 3.38
• Version: 33

Additional context

This only happens with the flatpak version

Same problem here. Can use "Gnome-Tweaks" to add the flatpak to startup application but the problem is it won't start minimized (works for all flatpaks). I haven't yet found any information as to how I can start the application on the taskbar on startup as there's barely any information about it online. It launches but the window is right in your face everytime.

For anyone having the issue of Tutanota autostarting but not being minimized, simply add -a to the end of the command in your autostart file. For example, mine looks like:

"/usr/bin/flatpak run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64 --command=tutanota-desktop --file-forwarding com.tutanota.Tutanota -a"

The setting is still ignored on Ubuntu 24.04 with Gnome.

@ACodingGenie & @mz1193 Thank you! I made it work with Gnome Tweaks. :)
