Unread/alert badge showing erroneously #1454

Closed fonnesbeck closed 1 month ago

fonnesbeck commented 3 months ago

Describe the bug

Some apps in the dock have unread/alert badges showing when there are no messages/alerts/unreads in the app. A screenshot of what I'm seeing is shown below.

What did you expect to happen?

Badges should only be shown when the app has something to report.

Extra information or context

Here is what I'm seeing:

Yet, for both Slack and Spotify there are no messages, unread items, direct messages, etc. Restarting the app has no effect on this behavior.

Hello, @fonnesbeck! I'm here to help you with the issue you've encountered. I can assist you in solving bugs, answering questions, and becoming a contributor. Let's work together to resolve the problem you're facing.

There are no specific details available in the repository about issues related to notification badges, including erroneous badge displays for third-party applications like Slack and Spotify .

To troubleshoot this issue, you might want to check the following:

  1. Application Settings: Ensure that the notification settings within Slack and Spotify are correctly configured.
  2. Cache and Data: Try clearing the cache and data for these applications to see if it resolves the issue.
  3. System Logs: Check system logs for any errors or warnings related to notification services that might provide more insight.

If the problem persists, consider looking into community forums or recent updates that might have introduced this behavior.

After restarting the system, the badge for Slack has cleared but the Spotify badge persists.

I've seen this a few times, not sure what causes it.

fonnesbeck commented 3 months ago

Even logging out of Spotify does not clear it, so definitely not associated with an alert.

Looks like this is a long-standing issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/gnome/comments/11s6pej/how_to_disable_notification_dotsbadges_in_the_dock/?rdt=45894

Appears to be a bug with dash-to-dock. I've gone in and turned off notification badges altogether.
