Describe the Bug

Very occasionally when streaming with sunshine over moonlight I will see the sunshine icon showing a "playing" symbol in the tray and I am still able to access the context menu on right-click. However most the time I do not see the "play" icon and right-clicking sunshine in the tray does nothing. I am still able to navigate to the web URL to access settings.

Expected Behavior

I'm actually not sure if the expected results is that you should never be able to access the right click context menu when streaming or not. As stated above, there have been a few occasions where I can and there is always a green "playing" icon over the sunshine icon in the tray when that is the case.

From my perspective, I feel like the right click context menu on the tray icon should always be accessible whether I am streaming or not.
