Describe the bug

I see various issues when using teams with a komorebi setup.
When I open a call with teams, the application opens another window, which appears to be be not detected by komorebi.
It stays floating when open

Usually I push the team call window in my secondary screen, and if I do so, the main team window is actually put in my secondary screen, while the call window stay floating in the secondary screen.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

install teams here: https://www.microsoft.com/fr-fr/microsoft-teams/download-app
2. call somebody
3. switch the call window to the seconday screen
4. the main window will be put to secondary screen by komorebi

Expected behavior
Team call window is recognised separately from Team main window

Screenshots and Videos
Difficult to make a video of this without publishing private info.

Operating System

OS Name:                   Microsoft Windows 11 Entreprise
OS Version:                10.0.22621 N/A Build 22621

komorebic check Output

No KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME detected, defaulting to C:\Users\xxx

Looking for configuration files in C:\Users\xxx

No komorebi configuration found in C:\Users\xxx

If running 'komorebic start --await-configuration', you will manually have to call the following command to begin tiling: komorebic complete-configuration

Here is the AHKSpy info for this kind of window

When doing koremic state, I can't find this window in the state.

Also, I realized that the bug is not only the other team window which is moved to the other monitor, but whatever window container that is behind the floating/unmanaged window.

If I do a minimize + restore cycle, then the teams window is managed correctly, and I don't have the issue anymore.

Hi,
for now I can share workaround with you. It scans for teams and outlook apps for new windows. Then minimizes and maximizes them so they are registered by komorebi.
