Downstream issue NixOS/nixpkgs#384743
Can't reproduce on ba78e710534796deb1b09ba271115a8c5317b56e (nixpkgs). I used nix run github:NixOS/nixpkgs#element-desktop and got this commit hash from URL (rev=... can be used for exact reproduce). On 0196c0175e9191c474c26ab5548db27ef5d34b05 it is easily reproduced, but that was some time ago.

As said in downstream issue, it is fixed. I failed to find exactly which commit fixed that though. Also, according to (almost) instant launch after downloading, fix is already on cachix.

The nixpkg isn't maintained by us but the issue is likely due to nodejs/node#57233 and the house of cards that is the Node ecosystem
