Description
After starting Mailspring from dektop entry or shell there is no window coming up. I can see that it is running when looking at running processes.
I also read about some similar issues already reported over a year ago but could not find any current unsolved issues here on github.
Setup
OS and Version: Arch Linux, Kernel 5.1.3, Gnome
Mailspring Version: 1.6.1-aceed8e5
Additional Context
Update:
I installed mailspring from different sources (snap, yaourt) and I still have the same issue.
Update 2:
I noticed the following message when running from commandline after installing Mailspring with snap:
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
Running database migrations
App load time: 135ms
{"error":null}
I checked if canberra-gtk
is installed on my system - it is:

Hey! This is super interesting–we haven’t seen any reports of this in a while and it looks like Mailspring is launching happily in the background (no exceptions or anything beneath the {error: null}
line when you launch it).
Could you try running the app with Chromium’s GPU support disabled and extra logging by launching it like this? Maybe that will give a bit more info.
ELECTRON_ENABLE_LOGGING=true mailspring --disable-gpu

I executed mailspring as adviced but still have no visible window.
Output:
[5421:0527/224423.815546:ERROR:gpu_process_transport_factory.cc(1017)] Lost UI shared context.
Running database migrations

{"error":null}

The first line seems to indicate the issue.
I noticed that when looging in with a different, newly created, user mailspring suddenly displays correctly.
I reset my gnome for the user where the issue occurs but had no luck so far. The window still is invisible.

Just reproduced today. I had some problems with snapd systemd service running (mask errors) when I tried to install mailspring, and I had to reboot to get snapd systemd service running.
The first thing I did after rebooting and verifying snapd was running, was install the mailspring snap. I used the launcher to launch it, and got no visible window frame. I killed it, and then used the command line to launch it, and got the same errors reported above:
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
Running database migrations
App load time: 172ms
{"error":null}
I’m running Ubuntu 19.04. Hopefully some pertinent info to help:

I had the same issue. It failed to display welcome window.
I had to disconnect second screen for the window to be displayed. After initial config everything seems to work fine with second screen.
Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS. Mailspring installed from snap.
Edit: Same thing happens with Add account
dialog

Same issue.
I first installed the snap. Removed the snap and installed the .deb, the issue persists.
I have the same errors as others in this thread.
Pop_OS! 20.10, let me know if you want any other info.
