Public bug reported:

Please install the meshlab-mardy snap. This Qt application works fine in
unity7, and actually mostly works in unity8 too. However, as soon as it
starts, for some reason it creates a secondary black window for a few
seconds (title being something like "MeshLab_64bit"), which then gets
closed shortly after the main window appears. This works fine in unity7.

However, in unity8, this secondary window never closes. Also, the
splashscreen window is never closed, and its spinner continues rotating.

But the real problem comes when pressing "Alt+Tab": the task switcher
appears for a second, then unity8 restarts.

I'm using unity8-desktop-session (therefore classic Ubuntu) in
VirtualBox.
