The system tray does not work in Garuda Gnome

Hello,
I have installed Garuda Gnome. Everything works perfectly. Except for the applications that go in the "system tray", such as "Telegram".

I searched "systray problem", "system tray error". But most of the articles talk about the KDE version.

Do you also have this problem?

Thank you very much for your insights.
