(In reply to Hrvoje Senjan from comment #6) > Sounds like http://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-35658 Yes, that sounds exactly like it. In fact, I've also experienced the additional problem described in the third comment there about the race condition. I've tried the "systray-simpler" application attached to the bug and that one displays icons correctly, presumably because it uses QSystemTrayIcon directly? I've also tried to update qt to 5.5 using the OBS project KDE:Qt55. At that point, I had no more klipper but kmix still showed the same problem. ben@f1:~$ zypper info libqt5core5 [...] Repository: The Qt 5.5 development repository (openSUSE_Factory) Name: libQt5Core5 Version: 5.5.0-83.1 [...] ben@f1:~$ qtdiag Qt 5.5.0 (x86_64-little_endian-lp64 shared (dynamic) release build; by GCC 4.8.3 20141208 [gcc-4_8-branch revision 218481]) on "xcb" OS: openSUSE 20150610 (Tumbleweed) (x86_64) [linux version 4.0.4-3-desktop]
