Describe the bug
Sometimes komorebi windows and containers will stop displaying all together, and just show black screen instead. Interestingly, opeening a semi-transparent terminal window in the foregroud illuminates the ones at the back on the same workspace... even though i did not turn on float mode for any... watch video below.

The only way i've discovered to fix this is by restarting. not a huge concern, happens twice a week or so. Still leaving it here just in-case.

To Reproduce
It just happens after using it long enough. No cause is apparent to me.

Provide the output of komorebic check

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

Looking for configuration files in C:\Users\mmsye

Found komorebi.json; this file can be passed to the start command with the --config flag

Found C:\Users\mmsye\.config\whkdrc; key bindings will be loaded from here when whkd is started, and you can start it automatically using the --whkd flag

I'm seeing similar behavior almost every day. I don't have the container tabs configured as shown above. When an app has been minimized the client area may be black when the window is restored.

Workaround is the fully exit the app (that is black) and relaunch it.

I might mention (as indicated in the related https://github.com/LGUG2Z/komorebi/issues/1087) the behavior for me is in Chromium-based or browser-based apps (of which there are many).

Is this still an issue in the latest release?

I uninstalled Komorebi this month and haven't tested the "latest release" as I believe v0.1.33 was released since then.
