Description

Be sure to check the existing issues (both open and closed!), and make sure you are running the latest version of Guake.

For how to run the latest Guake in your computer, please refer to [Install from source](https://guake.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/installing.html#install-from-source).

**Describe the bug**

Guake does not show blur when opened until another application is focused in Wayland/Xwayland

**Expected behavior**

Guake should open/toggle in blurred state with applications blur enabled in "Blur My Shell" extension

**Actual behavior**

Guake seems to have an issue with remembering blurred state, this is only tied to Wayland.
Opens without blur effect and does not kick in until you focus an application, resets again after being re-toggled to background

**To Reproduce**

Using guake-toggle with Wayland, combined with blur my shell extension and application blur on, guake opens without blur, toggle again to minimize gake to background and then toggle to foreground, guake is now unblurred again.
