When following this very specific series of steps:

  1. Have mixer show up on the notification area (not on the overflow area)
  2. Open Start menu
  3. Open notification area overflow
  4. Click on mixer

First time, nothing will happen. Next time, though, mixer will open, but without focus, thus requiring the user to click in and out of it for it to close. Qt says that the window is active, and doing this to any other graphical app with taskbar presence triggers their FlashWindowEx response. This leads me to believe I'm dealing with some obscure explorer.exe bug. Ugh...

Tested on Windows 10 20H2 and 22H2.
