I have a running xrdp connection from my MacBookPro (xfreerdp or MS Remote Desktop client) to a Linux Mint 19 XFCE 4.12.4.



If I log in physically on the Mint machine to create an XFCE session, then logout, everything is fine, I can connect remotely afterwards. But if I connect remotely right after Mint booted, the icons and the bottom bar are trashed / messed up and the remote session cannot be used.



Messed up icons and bar



Several references can be found, like here or here, all of which are old (2014), supposedly fixed in XFCE 4.11 or left dangling without a solution. No reaction on Mint forum. So I'm turning here. Thanks for your help.
