Espanso not working, window not rendering + "Unknown" app in dock (Ubuntu/Wayland)

[Arche151]

Description

I installed espanso 2.2.1 on my Ubuntu 22.04 PC, following the documentation, and it seemed to start successfully.

I got a notification saying "Espanso is running" and espanso status says, that it's running as well.

But typing :espanso did nothing. There is a generic active app icon in my dock now (nothing in the tray) and when I click on it, a horribly deformed and broken window (more like a strip) appears.

It seems to be espanso, since it disappears and reappears when I restart espanso.

My logs are not indicating, what is wrong:

Reinstalling espanso didn't help, unfortunately.

Can confirm the bug, I have the same behaviour building from the source on Arch via the AUR repository (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/espanso-wayland). Running Plasma 6.0.4 on Wayland. Tried starting/stopping/restarting the service but the bug remains. Probably Wayland related.

@asdrubale88 compiling from source should fix this, fix in #1901 which is not yet in release.
