• [x ] I have double checked and can reproduce the issue

OS: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

GPMDP Version: 4.6.1

Issue Descriptions: The icon is appearing as the default for no icon. It worked in previous versions

Steps to Reproduce: Just install it. I had it installed then one day it disappeared. Have un/reinstalled several times. There used to be one with the electron symbol in the icon and one with an orange slice circle type thing. The electron one is gone and this is the latter. It is a snap.

I was able to temporarily fix this by doing the following:

first download the icon file from the repo

1) navigating to the application folder ~/snap/google-play-music-desktop-player/current/usr/bin/
2) right clicking google-play-music-desktop-player
3) clicking properties
4) dragging the svg file downloaded from the repo into the blank icon spot.

caveats are this does not update the app in the applications drawar and must be launched from the path described above.

This will be fixed in an upcoming Electron update
