The dialog is triggered if the application advertises support for the
_NET_WM_PING protocol but then doesn't reply in time, see the wm
spec[1] .

There's no supported way to disable it. Mutter uses the zenity command
to put up that dialog, so if you can hide that command from mutter or
make it non-executable, the dialog won't be launched but be aware that
this is an implementation detail and might change without notice so
you can't rely on it.

Please get the application fixed or file a bug for mutter if you have
evidence that mutter isn't complying with the _NET_WM_PING protocol.
