button push icon not sorking

[William Unruh]

I wrote a small script which does a direct output of sound around zoom,
or sneds the sound through zoom ( for purpose of accurate transmission
of music without zoom's noise reduction filters)

It is supposed to work by, when I click the desktop icon, it runs
pacmd load-module module-loopback ;
and changes the icon, and if I click
it again it runs
pacmd unload-module module-loopback ;
and changes back the icon. Now it works if I remove the mouse from the
icon between those clicks before putting it back on again before the
next click. But if I leave the mouse on the icon, it does not work.

This seems strange behaviour. Is it expected behaviour or is it a bug?

That's normal behaviour. Many people are used to double clicking on things
to open them, so additional clicks without moving off/on the icon are
intentionally ignored.

I could understand that if the second click came say up to 1 second
after the first, but half an hour seems a bit excessive. And triple or
hextuple clicks ignored also seems a bit excessive.
