Slack crashes on attach file

snap
1

Dear Snapcraft,

Using the slack snap v.4.8.0 on openSuse Tumbleweed with KDE, every time I click attach file, then select Your Computer, slack crashes with the following error

qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 54207, resource id: 115343361, major code: 18 (ChangeProperty), minor code: 0

This does not happen when I install slack 4.8.0 using the rpm provided on the slack website.

Thanks for helping!

Edmund

Greetings,

I had this problem. Then slack as a snap application, and I downloaded a the corresponding .deb package from the slack website. I opened it with “Software Install”, and now attaching files works as it should.
