Describe the bug

When I click on one of the icons on the launcher module it will not change focus.
If multiple of that app are open it does indeed pop up with multiple options but again clicking on one will not change focus.

To Reproduce

configure iron bar with launcher module and open ironbar
Click on an icon from the launcher module on ironbar

Focus should change to that icon s corresponding app

System information:

Distro: Arch Linux
