Rapid dis- and reappearing of the blueman applet icon #2311
Comments
If I disable the status-notifier-item plugin in blueman the blueman icon appears and no more rapid dis- and reappearing of the "transparent or black" box. |
Anything to possibly isolate it? Cannot reproduce with blueman 2.3.5, i3 4.23, i3status 2,14. |
Pardon my ignorance, but how can I trigger that? |
You need some executable program (for example anki). But a executable script should also do it. Right click on the script -> properties -> make executable -> execute with double click in dolphin. |
Ok, I managed to get that dialog, using an executable shell script (i.e. a text file with a shebang). It looks completely different though, regarding both styling and content (I get an additional "Open" button). Does not cause any problem with the tray icon. Dolphin 23.08.5. |
I uninstalled many packages, including plasma 6 desktop environment and many other KDE 6 packages, therefore the issue does not happen anymore. This is kind of a shame, because I would have liked to know how this issue happens. |
The styling is coming from qt6ct, a app which lets you change look and feel of qt6 programs in i3 and similar window managers. |
Ok I reinstalled Plasma 6 Desktop Environment along with it's dependencies. And Dolphin as a "standalone" application does not trigger the bug, but with Plasma 6 and it's dependencies installed the bug happens! |
Make sure bluedevil is not installed by using |
I won't install any KDE applications anymore, because uninstalling and installing KDE Plasma again, broke my system. So I might make a test in a VM, but later. |
Shot in the dark: Do you happen to have audio profiles or recent connection items with |
That on-off flashing started on Arch Linux after the update to Plasma6, with both 2.3.5 and 2.4 versions of blueman. When starting blueman-applet from terminal, I get the following messages:

As noted above, either disabling the |
kded6 provides an `org.kde.StatusNotifierWatcher` service without its usual `/StatusNotifierWatcher` object if Plasma Workspace's StatusNotifierWatcher module is registered but not loaded (https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/3301).

blueman: 2.3.5
BlueZ: 5.71
Distribution: OpenSuse Tumbleweed (Rolling Release)
Desktop environment: i3
Blueman is running, but the bluetooth-applet-icon is "appearing" and disappearing (in very short spans of time ca. every ~30 milliseconds) in the right part of the bar. The Icon itself is not visible but a black or transparent square where the icon should be.
I tried it out with blueman running and with other programs closed.
The bug seems to appear when I start the dolphin file manager.
This right part of the bar is part of the desktop environment i3 (if I understood correctly).
I already filed a bug in the bumblebee-status bar github page, but they say it's very probably not their bug.
I tried it with bumblebee-status and i3 default status bar, but the bug happens with both statusbars, and seems independent of the set status bar. I don't think its a graphical glitch in the sense, that it has anything to do with the gpu.
Maybe it's the way the icon gets drawn or updated?
State 1:
State 2:
Imagine rapid switching between the two states.
In the next test, I closed the other applet icons, so that only blueman is open. Same problem.
