Expected behaviour- I believe Discord has (had?) this issue as well due to the nature of Flatpak sandboxing, and I'm not sure if there is a "proper" way to handle it- If there isn't a way correct way for Flatpak environments to handle this, I'd take an API-based option to flip the toggle as a fallback- If there isn't a correct way for Flatpak environments to handle this, I'd take an API-based option to flip the toggle as a fallback
