If it's really a "trick" then maybe it shouldn't work? I don't know,
since I don't use fvwm.

What happens if you don't use --daemon and emacsclient? I've found
several things* that work using emacs "normally" but not when using
emacsclient :( I get the impression (and it really is just that) that
less testing is done with emacsclient than with the main emacs program.
* For example only today I had the situation that emacsclient would
always say "Entering debugger"´(and then hung) when I started it, even
though /usr/bin/emacs worked just fine, without complaint. Eventually,
clearing my .desktop fixed it. Just an example.
