Details

Steps to reproduce:

I use Mako as a FreeDesktop notification daemon, and it starts when I log in. Thunderbird, which was installed from Flathub, is still sending its own custom notification.

https://github.com/emersion/mako

I have alerts.useSystemBackend set to True.

Firefox, which is not a flatpak, correctly sends notifications through the system. That's why I suspect there's something wrong with the flatpak config.

Actual results:

On my tiling window manager (Sway), the custom notification doesn't float - it covers the entire screen!

Expected results:

It should use the system backend for notifications.

I am now running 128.3.0esr and the problem is resolved.
