Steps to reproduce
Update Obsidian snap or wait for System to auto-update.
Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]
Not really relevant here, but Y I read it.
Expected result
New version should behave as before, get an Icon and be findable in the dash.
Actual result
Dock icon is gone, obsidian not in dash but can be launched via snap run obsidian. Can be repaired partially by copying the desktop file from /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/ to ~/.local/share/applications. This makes it visible in dash. But then the launched app does only get a generic icon in dock and can’t be pinned.
