I do not have this issue, but I remember it from 3.x days. It is a timing issue. You can likely adjust it for your hardware by adding a sleep command. The file that calls wmswallow in 4.x is .fluxbox.inc

I tried playing around with sleep and such, but it didn't help much... However, this is hardly the biggest issue.... ;)

Typically adding sleep 2 as the last line of .fluxbox.inc should be helpful. If you haven't tried it as the last line, then might try that,

I had tried sleep everywhere but the last line. I tried adding sleep 4 there now. However, what I see now is that the docked app first pops up in the upper left corner with the mountool visibly inside. Then it jumps down to the lower right corner, and whites out... If I now use windowmanager > restart then the mountool reappear in the wmswallow rectangle but now fluxter at the same time jumps from the lower left to the upper left corner. Well, killing and starting fluxter again fixes that...
