I have the same issue. The workaround I'm using is modifying the relevant desktop files in ~/.local/share/applications/wine/Programs as follows:
Original Spotify.desktop: [Desktop Entry] Name=Spotify Exec=env WINEPREFIX="/home/michael/.wine" wine C:\\\\windows\\\\command\\\\start.exe /Unix /home/michael/.wine/dosdevices/c:/users/michael/Start\\ Menu/Programs/Spotify.lnk Type=Application StartupNotify=true Path=/home/michael/.wine/dosdevices/c:/users/michael/Application Data/Spotify Icon=4243_spotify.0 Modified Spotify.desktop: [Desktop Entry] Name=Spotify Exec=env WINEPREFIX="/home/michael/.wine" wine "C:/users/michael/Application Data/Spotify/spotify.exe" Categories=AudioVideo;Audio;Music;Player; Type=Application StartupNotify=true StartupWMClass=spotify.exe Path=/home/michael/.wine/dosdevices/c:/users/michael/Application Data/Spotify Icon=4243_spotify.0 I think the important bits are: 1) passing the actual .exe file to wine instead of passing it start.exe which, in turn, is being passed the .lnk file 2) Adding "StartupWMClass=spotify.exe" to match the correct window As a bonus, setting relevant Categories will let you filter the application correctly in the dash. Works like a charm for me. You need to run "unity --replace" for an immediate effect the first time round, or log off and in again. I hope this helps someone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/702452 Title: [launcher] Wine applications are wrongly matched To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bamf/+bug/702452/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
