Firefox window on secondary monitor not always activated

[bartlibert]

I have a setup with two monitors where I see the following behaviour when searching for a tab from gnome-shell. Note that the correct tab is always switched to, but Firefox is not activated in the following cases (note: target tab is always on the firefox instance on the secondary monitor):

• Firefox is on the secondary monitor and not activated
• Firefox is on the secondary monitor, there is also a window on the primary monitor that is not activated

If the window on the secondary monitor is active OR another Firefox window on the primary monitor is active, the firefox window on the secondary monitor is correctly activated.

Gnome-shell version: 42.2
Firefox version: 101.0
Extension version: 4
Connector version: 0.1.1-4 from AUR repo

Running on wayland, but Firefox is using xwayland

Can you reproduce this if firefox is wayland native?
If not this might be same issue as #26.

I also have the same issue with native wayland firefox. If you need any more info or logs, let me know.

Hi @bartlibert, I was able to reproduce this, but I don't think I can fix this issue with extensions alone.
I think main issue is on Firefox side cause I couldn't reproduce with Microsoft Edge.

I'm marking this as duplicate of #26 as underlying issue is same for both.
