Thanks for the report. It looks like a problem with an outdated Flatpak GPU driver. Have you tried updating all Flatpak packages?

If that didn't help. Run the app with the --verbose option to see more logs:

flatpak run net.mkiol.SpeechNote --verbose

ok, the faltpak on flathub is old, might wanna flag that.

i just downloaded latest flatpak from HERE, and works, BUT if option "Minimized to tray" is checked in Gnome disappears and very g=hard to kill or make window visible again.

Yes, GNOME doesn't have "System tray" by default. You have to install an extension, for instance this one: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/615/appindicator-support

I assume that the problem was solved by updating flatpak packages. If not, please reopen.
