Public bug reported: There seems to be a window matching bug between the Slack snap and Chrome.
If you open a URL from within Slack without Chrome open, then the launcher shows the extra pip next to Slack and doesn't add a Chrome icon to the launcher. If you open Chrome first, then things work as expected. Steps to reproduce 1. Install Slack snap and Chrome deb. 2. Join a Slack channel and open a hyperlink. Notice the extra pip next to Slack in the launcher. 3. Close Chrome and reopen it. 4. Open a URL from Slack again and notice the Chrome icon get added to the launcher. I'm not sure if this is an Ubuntu Dock or GNOME Shell issue. EDIT: Spoke to didrocks, he says that matching is done by Shell. ** Affects: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Status: Confirmed ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Description changed: There seems to be a window matching bug between the Slack snap and Chrome.
