IDE hangs on startup in macOS GUI mode #1527

Describe the problem

I have installed the Arduino IDE 2.0 on MacOS Monterey (12.6). It is a late-2019 16" macbook pro. When start the IDE in UI mode through spotlight or application folder, the IDE hangs. No splash screen, only the icon jumping in the dock eventually stuck with "Application not responding". However when I start the IDE in command line mode through terminal, the IDE starts just fine. Due to hang state I could not get any logs. It is very strange behavior.

I start to experience the issue in rc-9, thought it is due to beta. But seems the 2.0 GA version has the same problem. Once the IDE starts from the command line everything seems to work just fine.

To reproduce

Don't know what would be needed to reproduce it.

Expected behavior

Arduino IDE should start normally with splash screen then the actual IDE open on desktop.
