Sleek hangs on start on arch/manjaro(KDE) when close to tray configured (local build)

Bug Report

Local builds of sleek don't work anymore on arch/manjaro after latest distro updates. The application hangs on start.

I suspect that the updates may have involved electron or plasma in a way that makes sleek incompatible with them.

The actual issue is with the system tray. When sleek is configured to close to the system tray, on start it tries to create a system tray icons, and fails. Nothing becomes visible. This means that if the application was previously configured to close to the system tray, when you try to start it nothing happens and you cannot use it.

Manually editing the sleek json config file to set the tray option to false lets the application be started again.

The flatpak (that probably uses a different version of electron) works.

A little update. As of today, the issue is not present anymore in Arch and Manjaro testing, but present in Manjaro stable. The problem is probably with electron 43.4.1.
