I'm on horus with the following non-default repos enabled:
-Jammy proposed
-Elementary daily & staging
I have a single script in "System Settings > Applications > Startup" with a number of 'sleep' & 'exec' commands to manage startup apps.
1 entry in particular (vlc) fails to start via this script & it's menu/dock icon after today's system updates (2023-04-25).
3 variations of its entry will run in the terminal [0] manually, and they fail when run from the script. It doesn't seem to matter where in the startup process it's placed, or that it's affected by the delays in there.

Changing this entry in both the menu/dock & startup script to launch via "screen -d -m /usr/bin/vlc" solves the issue.
See issue filed under 'switchboard'.
