Description

Environment:
- KDE Plasma Wayland
- Flathub Teams for Linux 2.16.0
- com.github.IsmaelMartinez.teams_for_linux

Problem:
Unread count is detected by Teams for Linux (window title changes to "(1) ..."),
but no taskbar badge appears.

dbus-monitor shows no:
com.canonical.Unity.LauncherEntry.Update

Workaround:
flatpak override --user \
--talk-name=com.canonical.Unity \
com.github.IsmaelMartinez.teams_for_linux

After restarting the app, launcher badges work immediately.

Proposed manifest fix:
finish-args:
- --talk-name=com.canonical.Unity

Research direction

Start from the Flatpak manifest for com.github.IsmaelMartinez.teams_for_linux and inspect its finish-args permissions. Verify the missing com.canonical.Unity D-Bus permission against the reported workaround, then confirm that taskbar badges appear after rebuilding or reinstalling the manifest.
