Peter's suggestion to remove the StartupWMClass line from
emacsclient.desktop fixes the "Emacs" launcher:

But as he says, it flips the bug around to hit users of the new "Emacs
(Client)" launcher instead...

Deleting emacsclient.desktop would bring back the behavior of Emacs 27 I
suppose, but I don't know whether having a slightly buggy "Emacs
(Client)" launcher is better than having no "Emacs (Client)" launcher at
all.
