I apologize if this is a duplicate issue! Feel free to close if so.

Description
The talonvoice application causes the below systray error and does not display an icon, whereas Waybar handles it just fine.
It may also be worth noting that talon is an xwayland app.

2024-08-21T01:29:16.386893Z ERROR system_tray::client: 240: Error fetching properties from :1.123org.kde.StatusNotifierItem-600261-1/StatusNotifierItem: ServiceUnknown("The name :1.123org.kde.StatusNotifierItem-600261-1 was not provided by any .service files")

To Reproduce

Start ironbar
nix run github:nix-community/talon-nix or use the linux download from https://talonvoice.com/, both produce the same error (I tested)
See error

Expected behavior

Talon systemtray icon appears and behaves normally.

System information:

Distro: NixOS 24.05
Compositor: Hyprland
Ironbar version: tested on 0.15.0 and 0.16.0

Not sure if it's related, but I'm not seeing icons in Ironbar's tray for Steam, Vesktop, Bitwarden, or Signal Desktop. Thus the tray starts completely empty with all four of those already running.

Yep aware of that one, that's covered by #632 :)

There's a few fundamental holes in the tray implementation I need to close up causing most of the issues.
