Closed issue by dawidpotocki on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/18266

Description:
### System

* xuname:  
  `Void 5.3.18_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate rrrmFFFFF`
* package:  
  `riot-desktop-1.5.6_1` 

### Expected behavior

Riot werks

### Actual behavior

Riot doesn't show an application window (without launching twice). It started happening after 1.5.0
update (or something like that) and kept working on my machine with my logged
in account, but on new installs, it complained about not having set a default
server. Since 1.5.6, it won't even show this message, it will just show a white
empty window, that's it. I know it doesn't happen only on my machines, since I
first heard about this from other Riot user on Void.

### Steps to reproduce the behavior

Fresh install `riot-desktop` and launch `riot-desktop` in terminal.
