2023-09-16 21:42:23 Harm van Bakel summary Clicking on a notification no longer raises window in LTS 22.04.3 Clicking on a notification in the notification list no longer raises window in LTS 22.04.3
2023-09-16 21:50:59 Harm van Bakel description As part of the LTS 22.04.3 release many gnome package updates are available in the 'proposed' repository. When checking these on a test machine I noticed that the window raise behavior when clicking on notifications has regressed for some applications. In 22.04.2 clicking on a notification in gnome shell would raise the application window and focus the inbox or chat channel the message was received in. In the 22.04.3 proposed packages this is still the case for e.g. Thunderbird, but for other applications such as 'slack' and 'signal' clicking on a new message notification no longer raises the application window. Although not a major bug, it's quite annoying as it breaks the workflow and means extra work in finding the application and the channel that the message arrived at. Due to the many package updates it's not clear to me which update broke the behavior (maybe mutter or gnome-shell) but filing it under shell because of the notification area issue.

In 22.04.2 clicking on a queued notification in the list would raise the application window and focus e.g. the inbox or chat channel the message was received in. In 22.04.3, when clicking on queued notifications for applications such as thunderbird, slack' and signal the application window is no longer raised and 'Window is ready' notifications are not triggered. The issue only occurs for queued messages in the message list, for example when 'do not disturb' is enabled. Clicking on pop-up notifications still focuses attention on the application the notification originated from. Although not a major bug, it's quite annoying as it breaks the workflow and means extra work in finding the application and the channel that the message arrived at. Due to the many package updates it's not clear to me which update broke the behavior (maybe mutter or gnome-shell) but filing it under shell because of the notification area issue.
