Qt5 appindicators not showing in gnome shell

Hi! I am trying to build a snap of maestral-dropbox (https://github.com/LyzardKing/maestral-dropbox/blob/master/snap/snapcraft.yaml)
I also built previously a snap for ksnip which is now upstream (https://github.com/ksnip/ksnip/blob/master/snap/snapcraft.yaml)
In both cases the appindicator shows normally in a clean ubuntu-mate vm, but not in an Ubuntu (gnome) vm.
I cannot figure out where the issue might be…

It works if I add these environments in the snap yaml:

XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP: Unity:Unity7
QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME: gtk3

Is there a better way to solve this?
