Bug Description
Some applications disable "Night Light" and it is not reenabled upon exiting application.
Examples:
Minecraft
Nvidia Settings
World of Warcraft via Wine.
You can go into settings and manually toggle "Night Light" off and back on in order to get the blue light reduction to take effect again.
Not all application/games will cause this. Rocket League, Civilization 5 are examples that do not.
