I installed 2.2.0 on Linux mint 19.1 MATE but do not have an icon in the system tray when the application is open. It opens a blank space where there should be an icon so I can right click that space to execute functions as needed but no icon is there.

The package install icons into the following directories:

share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark/status/22
share/icons/ubuntu-mono-light/status/22
share/icons/hicolor/22x22/status
share/icons/hicolor/scalable/status

I guess Mint doesn't use any of them. So you would need to symlink or copy the appropriate icon file into a location recognised by Mint. And then run sudo update-icon-caches /usr/share/icons/*.
