[SOLVED] Tray in Panel doesn't work after system start

Hi,

i autostart some apps that create a tray icon in the panel. I can use the apps with an right click on the icon. The tray doesn't work on xubuntu 22.04 with xfce 4.18 but it worked with xubuntu 20.04 and xfce 4.16. when i restart the panel manually with 'xfce4-panel -r' the tray works but not directly after system start.

It conflicts with the panel's systray. Killing it will not be enough, it will be automatically restarted at reboot. Uninstall it if it is not useful for you.
