Actual Behavior

app.focus() shows a notification saying "[app name] is ready" and does not focus on the window.

Additional Information

The repro calls app.focus() 2.5s after launching the app. Once the app starts, click on the Electron Fiddle window to switch focus away from the repro app. After 2.5s, you should see the notification on Electron 38.2.0+. This does not repro on 38.1.2 or latest 37 (37.8.0).

I observed this issue on both Ubuntu and Fedora.
