ubuntu-dock v82 unresponsive to mouse clicks on Xorg unless at least one window is open

[corrado venturini]

After starting an application from dock and closing it dock becomes unresponsive if no apps are open.
I start an app from dock and then close it. click on any icon in the dock has no effect. now I can start the dash with super+a and then start an app from the dash or start the terminal with ctrl+alt+t
now the dock works until an app (any app) is active. when I close all apps dock becomes unresponsive again.

Ubuntu dock is unresponsive also when all active apps are minimized. So I minimize an app and then i'm unable to unminimize it clicking on the icon in the dock.

Problem does not occur in same PC another partition with Ubuntu Mantic installed from an old ISO dated 20230514.
This system with the problem was installed from an ISO dated 20230521.
Attaching the file with the difference between the 2 system.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Sounds like https://github.com/micheleg/dash-to-dock/issues/2024 which is apparently a regression in version 82.

Problem does NOT occur also in another install of Ubuntu Mantic from ISO dated 20230607

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

As a workaround, you can also use Super+<numberkey> to select an icon from the dock.

Looks like only Xorg sessions are affected?

[corrado venturini (corradoventu)]

I can confirm I have the problem only with Xorg session.
