Hello,
What Desktop Environment are you using?
What services are active in the init system?

If it is Connamn by any chance, enable Universe repository and update.

Package connman-gtk was moved to Universe since it was removed from Arch repositories.

This rather small number of xfce packages installed along with connmand-gtk still cannot show the icon :

xfce4-appfinder
xfce4-clipman-plugin
xfce4-notifyd
xfce4-panel
xfce4-power-manager
xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin
xfce4-session
xfce4-settings
xfce4-terminal
xfce4-wavelan-plugin
xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin

The other Artix that has more such Xfce installed does show it normally, which certain package miss that has caused the problem?
