Bug Description

Testing Ubuntu MATE daily-builds (20210225 ISO).

SW and version: ubuntu-mate-welcome 20.10.0-bb92cef1

Issue: Gparted under 'Installation Guide' (both main window and under 'Dual booting') in the Welcome app does not launch in live session.

Once installed, clicking on GParted pops-out authentication window and after providing password, launches properly. This does not happen in live session.

When I launch welcome app from terminal with 'snap run ubuntu-mate-welcome' and clicking on GParted, I see following error.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/snap/ubuntu-mate-welcome/575/usr/bin/ubuntu-mate-welcome", line 1392, in _title_changed_cb
    self._do_command(title)
