Cant load WickrMe on Arch

Hello dear Community,

I need to use WickrMe. As its only available as snap I installed it.
I am running Arch Linux with Gnome.
When I type “snap run wickrme” in Terminal following error is shown.

Gtk-Message: 12:15:41.323: Failed to load module “canberra-gtk-module”

Libcanberra is installed.

Can someone help me out here?
Thanks.

looks like another iteration of

Thanks for the quick reply.

The commands below fixed the issue.
sudo rm /var/cache/fontconfig/*
rm ~/.cache/fontconfig/*

Next question would be how to minimize it to tray after closing the windows.
If I close the windows the app closes too.
Is it possilble that the app stays open in tray instead of closing?
Thanks.

Or should I create a new topic for this issue?

that sonds more like an app specific issue, did you check the application settings ?

if they seem correct but do not work as expected, i’d suggest to contct wickr about it, there is a “contact wickr inc” link on

Thanks will do.
Thread can be marked as solved.
Have a nice day.
