I think this is a GTK bug, where the developers neglected to maintain
the iconification state on Wayland after GNOME removed the minimize
button from window title bars.

Can you set a breakpoint here (in pgtkterm.c), and see if it is ever hit
when you deiconify Emacs?

  if (event->window_state.new_window_state
      & GDK_WINDOW_STATE_ICONIFIED)
    SET_FRAME_ICONIFIED (f, true);
  else
    {
-->   FRAME_X_OUTPUT (f)->has_been_visible = true;
      inev.ie.kind = DEICONIFY_EVENT;
      XSETFRAME (inev.ie.frame_or_window, f);
      SET_FRAME_ICONIFIED (f, false);
    }
