Screen recording of the bug using VLC
SUMMARY
With git master Plasma 6.2 compiled today using kdesrc-build, if an app plays
media and uses MPRIS so the media player applet in the system tray appears (so
far I tried Firefox with the Plasma Integration extension, VLC and Elisa), and
then the app is closed (or in the case of Firefox closing the tab that was
playing media), instead of just the media player applet deactivating the whole
system tray disappears instead, at least visually.
There is still a small invisible space where I can right click and have the
context menu for the system tray appear so that I can open the system tray
configuration dialog, but I can no longer access any of the applets/tray icons
in that state, unless I restart plasmashell.
Disabling the media player applet completely works around the problem, but not
just having it be always hidden instead of shown when relevant or always shown.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Play some media in an app that supports MPRIS (at least VLC, Elisa, Firefox
with the Plasma Integration extension)
2. Close the media player app
OBSERVED RESULT
The system tray disappears from view, and the tray icons are inaccessible.
EXPECTED RESULT
Only the media player applet disappears (if set to "Show when relevant").
