I noticed the same behavior, it is pretty annoying. My system in case it matters: Arch, Kernel: 6.1.6-arch1-1 Sway 1.8 with waybar (for system tray) and mako (for notifications)

Out of curiosity I looked into this bug a bit. This is what I found out:

• Disabling Notification Popups in Settings doesn't solve this
• This seems to happen only if the nofitication has some kind of action defined, e.g. "Activate" (a custom notification created with "notify-send" without actions doesn't do the trick, but a mail-notification from thunderbird or a new-message notification from signal does)
• In mainwindow.cpp: Uncommenting "this->show()" in line 1064 (in MainWindow::messageClicked()) and in line 543 (in MainWindow::notify()) prevents this behavior.
• Debugging mainwindow.cpp with breakpoints at line 543 and 1064 confirms this: Everytime I click on a notification of another application (like Thunderbird, Signal, ...), both MainWindow::messageClicked() and MainWindow::notify() get called, resulting in those two lines being executed.

Unfortunately I don't know much about qt, so I couldn't figure out what calls these functions and why.

I will check. Thanks

It's a bug in Qt: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-112170

I don't think it's possible to work around, other than implementing the system tray without QSystemTrayIcon. messageClicked() is just too broken.

I was trying to reproduce this behavior, and this what i found:

• the issue only get triggred when app is running as snap
• executing same code do not trigger the issue when built & run locally

Command to trigger the issue (notify-send clickable notification): notify-send "Clickable Message" "This message can be clicked!" --icon=dialog-information --action="default,Open Terminal"

Probably because you're using Plasma? Plasma ships its own QSystemTrayIcon implementation which does not have that bug. Inside the Snap and Flatpak, this is not available and the broken Qt one is used.

Yes. Thanks for insight :)
