cinnamon 1.6.7-5
Arch Linux

The window gets hidden when I click on the systray icon manually. 

How is it possible to hide the main window automatically on start-up?

You should use the users' mailing list or IRC for questions, not this tracker.

Use the notification plugin, and set the option 'hide at start-up' in the SysTray component preferences.

This is a real bug report. I checked the option 'hide at start-up' but it does not show any difference.

Works for me in Cinnamon.

That option can't really be reliable anyways, because a window manager may ignore the requests (possibly due to its configuration, plugins/extensions, ...).

Not reproducible with Xfce 4.10

So I have to blame muffin as my window manager in Cinnamon.
