Unity on Linux creates new window when tooltip pops up.

Hello,

I started using the Unity3D IDE on my machine just the other day and I am running into a strange issue. When I hover over something in the UI so as to have a tool-tip pop up, it seems the way Unity creates/manifests the tool-tip as something that is a window in some way or another. If you reference the attached image you will see the Unity icon in my taskbar is illuminated (and actually flashes, but I can’t show that in a still image).

This is a bit annoying not only due to the flashing, but because I also like to have my taskbar hidden. With this behavior every time I produce a tool-tip, either on purpose or unintentionally, the taskbar pops up and gets in my way.

Has anyone else had this issue with Unity on Linux?

System:
Desktop Environment: KDE/plasmashell 5.19.5
Linux Version: Manjaro 20.1.1
Unity Version: 2020.1.7f1

I am facing the same issue in Unity 2020.1.17f1 in Manjaro XFCE. Has anyone found a solution?
