when I ran metacity after setting METACITY_VERBOSE=42 , its verbose output contains: SM: Compiled without session management support which might be the cause of this session registration problem.

Probably just missing: BuildRequires: libsm-devel I've built that locally, but cannot test right now.... will do so in a few hours and push if it works.
maybe it worked for me because i had this BR on my machine. i will test too
