On my current NixOS with KDE desktop, I can’t see a tray icon and would have assumed that TeamSpeak would display it by default. Other programs also display it without any problem, including other Electron applications.
Just out of curiosity, how can the option to minimize to the system tray be enabled in Linux in general? It seems that a tray icon and these settings only appear for one of my friends using Windows in an additional submenu. Why is this submenu not existent for Linux systems, or did I miss something?
Since TeamSpeak is now based on the Electron platform, this functionality should be supported out of the box, just like countless other similar apps do it.
As mentioned in this post, I’ve added the setting "application.minimize_to_tray": true
to the ~/.config/TeamSpeak/Default/preferences.json
file.
This means that the window actually disappears as intended and can no longer be found among the open windows. Unfortunately, without the tray icon, there is no way to restore the TS6 window again.
