After upgrade of my latest Ubuntu 20.04 I'm getting all kinds of weird delays when using brightness/volume hotkeys; or when using app that updates the system tray (especially player in volume menu popup). List of symptoms:

  • Spotify - switching songs takes minutes, tray information is not in sync with current song
  • Volume, brightness - after keys are pressed, updates happen in discrete steps with ~15 seconds between each other
  • Mattermost - application keeps getting greyed out and "Busy", never
    recovers (probably when it updates systray).
  • Rhythmbox - same behavior as Spotify but also application is greyed out as "Busy", recovers after ~15 seconds.
  • Wi-Fi icon - updates to Wi-Fi icon happen with huge delays, switching networks happens with a delay.

I got several reports of iBus crashing but otherwise system was completely stable before upgrade.
