I installed oh-my-zsh
and set zsh
as my default shell.
chsh -s /bin/zsh
After that many menu items in KDE menu disappeared.
For example Telegram, starting with:
env AMF_DESKTOP_FILE_HINT=/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/telegram-desktop_telegramdesktop.desktop /snap/bin/telegram-desktop -- %u
If I switch default shell to bash again, all menu items appeared.
I tried to set env variables in .zshrc
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/share/plasma:/usr/local/share:/usr/share:/var/lib/snapd/desktop
export DEFAULTS_PATH=/usr/share/gconf/plasma.default.path
export PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/home/okeanij/.dotnet
export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg/xdg-plasma:/etc/xdg:/usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kf5-settings
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000
export XAUTHORITY=/home/okeanij/.Xauthority
export XDG_SESSION_PATH=/org/freedesktop/DisplayManager/Session1
export XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP=KDE
export XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11
export XDG_VTNR=1
But it did not help.
My full env log when bash is default and menu working properly:

I make one experiment. In KDE menu editor I just copy Telegram item, and get Telegram 2.
And it is very strange: Telegram 2 is showing properly when zsh
is the default shell.
But this is not a solution.
It seems that scripts in
/etc/profile
and/etc/profile.d/...
are not run when zsh is the default shell. Notably, the environment variable leading to .desktop files for snap apps won't be set correctly. I don't understand why this should be, assuming a graphical login, but your example of the Telegram snap app makes me think that this is the problem. See this answer a way to fix this.
