Linux flatpak autostart does not work due to wrong command

Reproduction steps

  1. Open Flatpak version of Fluxer
  2. Go into settings and enable "Linux app-> Launch Fluxer at login"
  3. Restart OR Quit Fluxer and press start in KDE Settings System->Autostart->Fluxer

Expected behaviour

Fluxer will automatically open on OS start, or manually when pressing start in KDE Settings System->Autostart->Fluxer

Actual behaviour

Fluxer does not start and silently fails. Looking at the log can see it gets the below error: app-app.fluxer.Fluxer@autostart.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

Evidence

Below is the autostart file from /home/(user)/.config/autostart/: [Desktop Entry] Type=Application Name=Fluxer X-XDP-Autostart=app.fluxer.Fluxer Exec=flatpak run --command=fluxer app.fluxer.Fluxer --autostart X-Flatpak=app.fluxer.Fluxer I also have a screenshot of the KDE Autostart screen showing it failed. Screenshot_20261014_145705.png Manually trying to run the Exec command gives the following message: flatpak run --command=fluxer app.fluxer.Fluxer --autostart bwrap: execvp fluxer: No such file or directory whereas the below without --command works without issue: flatpak run app.fluxer.Fluxer --autostart
