Bug Description

This seems similar to bug #1535058 but that one seem to be quite old, so maybe it's not related. Nevertheless I'm experiencing the same issues: each time I try to launch an app from the dash or the launcher it crashes..

I'm on Xenial + Phone Overlay, all packages updated at the moment of writing.

I managed to start konsole (KDE) from the dash. From there I could try to start the webbrowser-app with ubuntu-app-launch. Using that way, the browser crashes immediately after it opens. If I just type its name and press enter, it works correctly (I'm actually writing this update from it). Let me know if there's any needed log or information.

As I started the browser from konsole, which is using XMir, I'm probably able to see the browser through X, and the problem to be on the Mir side.

If you have any other failing apps, please log separate bugs for them.
