Issue

Pressing the hotkey does not always toggle Cerebro on Fedora 25 with Gnome on Wayland. Whenever I'm on the desktop, or in Nautlius (or any other stock gnome app), Cerebro does not show up when i press the hotkey.

However, it does work when I am in other programs like Chromium or Firefox. Maybe this has something to do with Wayland itself? The hotkey invokes Cerebro as it should whenever I am using a program that uses Xwayland. Also, the issue is not present when I'm using Gnome on Xorg.

I should also mention that i have configured Super+Space as the hotkey. This combination is not used for any other shortcut in the DE.
