Another application that recently started showing an incorrect icon was variety wallpaper changer, which required a restart before displaying the correct icon. I was able to get libayatana-appindicator installed, which fixed both variety and discord icons. However, discord still does not display notifications. I tried using the discord_arch_electron AUR package to see if using the system's electron would resolve this issue, but it did not.

Anyone got an update on this?
I'm facing the exact same problems with discord (and the browser integration). I've tried all the proposed solutions but sadly neither worked? So I was wondering if someone stumbled across another solution.

Edit: Unsure if dbus isssue as well because "export (dbus-launch)" fixes a warning from discord and also an error from the browser-integration. But sill the tray icon is bugged and the browser integration doesn't show media playing.

Edit2: Fixed! Turns out
It looks like a solution has been found here. Editing Plasma's desktop file to include "dbus-run-session" to the "Exec" line lets system tray icons show as expected, at least for Discord.
was the right solution... I just overlooked the relevant part.
So changing
"Exec=/usr/bin/startplasma-x11" to "Exec=dbus-run-session /usr/bin/startplasma-x11" in /usr/share/xsession/plasma.desktop
fixed it all Discord, Browser-Integration and Spotify.

fixed now in plasma-workspace-5.21.3-1.1, dbus-run-session added to our plasma.desktop
