Since updating to Ubuntu 23.04 and Gnome 44 I have this issue that was reported to Ubuntu Launchpad.

Bug details on Launchepad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-appindicator/+bug/2017333
also related to the issue https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-appindicator/+bug/2012388

Video of the Bug on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/12tyiwf/top_right_area_is_not_clickable_in_ubuntu_2304_i/

I'm not the person who collected the logs for the Launchpad issue, but I can get logs from my system if it will help.

The bug is happening on Wayland and Xorg on my system. I have this issue not only with anydesk but also with Zoiper Desktop. I assueme this problem affects ever application that uses a legacy tray icon.

If you disable the "legacy tray icons" Option in the extension and logout and login to a fresh Gnome session the problem disappears.

Do you by chance use Anydesk?

I'm using Kali with GNOME DE. My top right corner is also not clickable. When Anydesk in running, whenever I clicked somewhere in the top right corner, Anydesk opens a new window,

Is this issue somewhat related to Anydesk? Or do you have the solution?

my "solution" is to disable legacy tray icons in appindicator, of course this is not a permanent solution, since you loose anydesk and or pidgin tray icons since they are still written in legacy format, but at least the error does not occur anymore.

I believe it's not directly related to Anydesk, cause even on a machine without it, here I got the same issue. And yes, disabling legacy icons in appindicator works in both setups.

Disabling the recommended option has no effect on my setup.

Disabling the support for legacy tray icons solved the Anydesk problem for me :)
