[hcavarsan]

how did you install kftray? via homebrew or downloading the appimage directly?

also, which appimage version are you using? the filename should tell you if it's the standard or newer-glibc variant.

this is probably happening because arch has recent glib versions that don't work well with the libs bundled in the standard appimage.

could you try the newer-glibc version and see if it fixes the issue?
