### Description

Everytime the system starts it doubles the headerbar and gives me an error message, telling me to open a bug report at the upstream quckshell repo due to crashing, but since it is only being used by dms I believe this is the correct place to send the reports. If you believe otherwise, should it be opened upstream, just tell me and I will open the issue there. Since I dont understand their logs, just sending it here, but I am not sure what the problems is.

### Expected Behavior

_No response_

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Start the system
2. Wait for it to close automatically the second headerbar
3. Close manually the warning

Research direction

Start by reading the attached log.qslog.log and report.txt, using the reported Arch Linux, Hyprland, Quickshell, and DMS versions as context. Reproduce the startup sequence and determine why the header bar appears twice and why the crash warning is shown; done means startup produces one header bar without the warning.
