Flatpak issues
New to Ubuntu, having trouble with some flatpaks. Wanted a stable setup for my son, put Ubuntu lts on his desktop today. Installed flatpak, and added discord, spotify, steam, and sober.
Everything works great except for sober.
Will only open via terminal flatpak run org.vinegarhq.Sober
If I click the icon it does nothing.
Went into flat seal and turned on every permission I could think of no change.
Removed and installed sober a few times no change restarted PC a few times no change, tried upgrading fkatpak and sober.
Un able to find any documentation specific to my problem.
I have experience with fedora, suse, arch. I dont know much about Deb based distro's so any help is appreciated. Should I stick to .deb And snaps on Ubuntu?

Is it an official Flatpak? If so, contact the developer. If it was packaged by some random person, contact them.
