Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better!

Just a few questions to help identify the environment where the issue occurs:

1. Are you testing this on phyical hardware or in a VM? I ask because I have x11 on my 21.04 host and testing in a 21.04 vm with wayland and I do not see the problem.
2. Is this a fresh install?
3. You say the icon is the grey gear icon "before they change into their native icons on wayland". So does this mean that they do eventually change from the gear icon to the expected LO icon? When does this icon change occur?

1. i was testing a daily 21.04 20210403 on a physical netbook, tested both xorg & wayland
and only wayland had the issue

2. it was a fresh daily install

3. the grey icon dissapears pretty fast and changes indeed into the expected icons
when the libreoffice app has launched

@hellsworth, I'm attaching a screencast that shows the issue.

The current screencast is from 'quickemu+default install'. But also observed under 'virt-manager+zfs install'.
