Square instead of text in file dialog about sleek

@NoeTerrier thanks for reporting this. The issue is not new. In fact the second issue (#2) ever on Github was about this weird behavior. We never actively solve it, it just came and went. So I assume it is either something within Linux distributions or a module of Electron.

Are you installing sleek using Snap's command line? You could try downgrading and see if it still happens, maybe this helps us narrowing it down. For instance to version 1.2.2:
sudo snap refresh sleek --channel=1.2.2/stable

@NoeTerrier does this still happen in 1.2.8, which is the current release on Snap?

@ransome1 With version 1.2.9 snap cannot launch sleek:

~$ sleek /snap/sleek/1100/snap/command-chain/desktop-launch: line 602: /snap/sleek/1100/sleek/sleek: Permission denied /snap/sleek/1100/snap/command-chain/desktop-launch: line 602: exec: /snap/sleek/1100/sleek/sleek: cannot execute: Permission denied

@NoeTerrier yes there another bug report on this. So far I haven't found a fix for this, so I downgraded the latest sleek version on Snap to 1.2.8 again. I really wonder how you could get the 1.2.9 version. Did you install it from the Edge channel on Snap?

@NoeTerrier Have you checked the 1.2.8 (currently on Snap) and can you confirm this issue still occurs? If not, it would be great, if you could close this issue. Thanks a lot.
