Bug Description

Right-clicking an empty Trash icon in the Ubuntu dock causes the context menu to spawn in the upper left-hand corner. Additionally, the context menu contains no action items. The latter is merely an observation and perhaps isn't related to the bug itself.

1) Ubuntu 21.10
2) gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock (70~ubuntu3)
3) Context menu is shown next to Trash icon with a list of possible actions (Open/View Trash is my only suggestion)
4) Context menu is spawned at +0+0 with no action items

A short screencast is attached.

@lotuspsychje

You're absolutely correct! I did not check that. After the context menu disappears, Trash becomes un-right-clickable.

Whether it needs to produce some sort of a feedback or offer at least a single action, i.e. Open/View Trash, is a valid question.

The bug is present on Ubuntu 22.04 20211031 daily build.
