Bug Description
This bug is to track the issue previously discussed on the forum at https:/
"There are several ISVs working on snaps of their applications that offer an option to launch the application when you login to your desktop environment.
This is achieved by dropping a .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart but due to the way the home interface redefines the home directory location these autostart entries are not being “seen” by desktop environments and therefore ignored."
