System Tray not working correctly with Xfce (Xubuntu 18.04)

[wechsler42]

Hi there,
first of all thanks for offering a GUI for BorgBackup :-)

Describe the bug
The system tray is dysfunctional, i.e. nothing happens on left click and on right click on the system tray only the "Status Notifier Plugin" pull down menu (see attachment) is visible.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to system tray
2. Left Click on system tray --> Nothing happens
3. Right click on system tray --> Status Notifier Plugin show up
4. No error message appears in the terminal

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Xubuntu 18.04.2 LTS (Bionic)
• Vorta : 0.6.19 installed via "pip3 install vorta"

Hi, I don't think this is well-tested on Xfce. Mostly we have macOS and Gnome users.

If you can submit a PR to improve the behavior on Xfce, that would be great. Someone already added a workaround for KDE. Something similar could be needed for Xfce.

I had the same problem, I solved it by disabling the "The menu is a main action" option in the Status Notifier Plugin settings.

Thanks for the tip, @cbruno1 . We should add this to the docs somehow.
