Description:

The application displays the generic "Electron" icon in the dock instead of the actual VSCode icon.

Version: 1.51.1-1
I am running Gnome 3.38.0-1 together with Plank 0.11.89-2.

I originally filed the issue on the vscode repository: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/111327

The issue can be fixed by manually editing the .desktop file and changing `StartupWMClass` to `code-oss`.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install vscode
2. Launch it
3. Observe the icon being the generic Electron icon in the dock
This task depends upon
