The bug in action
SUMMARY
At seemingly random times, the widgets in my taskbar will stop responding. This
includes network menu, sound menu, bluetooth menu, systray, **application
launcher**, etc. I have not identified any patterns or triggers for this other
than just using the desktop. I am reporting specifically application launcher
because when it crashes, there is no way for me to open anything new.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use some programs like Chrome, Steam, Discord, and maybe a fullscreen game
2. Open application launcher
3. It doesn't open
OBSERVED RESULT
The application launcher refuses to open and just shows a blue rectangle at the
top of the icon.
EXPECTED RESULT
The application launcher opens and you can see a menu with all your programs.
