Systray icon for Element desktop is not appearing

I initially filed this issue with the software package maintainer: https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/22741
They marked it as a duplicate of this issue: https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/23993

They closed the issue and claimed the distros as the source of the issue.

Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this on Artix?
I'm running Artix with OpenRC and sway Windows Manager.

My current workaround, until this is fixed, is to enable the "Always show the window menu bar" in Settings -> Preferences. Then one can "File  -> Quit" to close Element desktop as closing it the normal way will only have it run in the background with no systray icon to interact with it.
