Could you clarify whether the Telegram icon shows up in the launcher?

In the linked issue you posted:

After installing flatpak, I had to modify XDG_DATA_DIRS for the icons
to show up.

$ grep -i flatpak ~/.bash_profile
export XDG_DATA_DIRS="$XDG_DATA_DIRS:$HOME/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share"

Is that what you did to fix the issue?

There was a discussion in another issue that flatpaks should be visible
in launcher without additional configuration:
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/44997

There is also an issue with D-Bus service activation with Guix Home,
even when XDG_DATA_DIRS is set to include flatpak:
https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/issues/7754

Is your issue covered by either of those?
