Bug Summary

The mixer is inaccessible in demos/Thaledric-Armageddon

This behavior is also buggy on stable-1.2.2, however the mixer can be made accessible by clicking the mixer button. nightly cannot resolve this issue and the mixer never becomes accessible.

The mixer is minimized(??????). There is a restore button available on the title bar of the mixer.

In 1.2.0, clicking the mixer button restores its size and brings it forward if it's in the background- however, it cannot be moved, the restore button is still visible, and if clicked brings it to the centre.
That is to say, you will find clicking the mixer button only makes the mixer accessible, not movable, until the "restore" button is specifically clicked again.

In 1.3, it only brings it to the forward without changing size. While the 1.2 brought it forward and changed the size for some reason while still making the window behave as minimized.

1.3 is arguably more sensible than 1.2, but both of these are terribly wrong.
why is it possible to have these elements "minimized"?

Is the restore button not visible for you?

[Monospace-V]

On further inspection, LMMS 1.1.2 and 0.4 seem to have a minimize button on each window.

#2983 removes this button.

It keeps a "restore" button instead of removing minimization behaviour previously minimized windows.

Perhaps it would be better to load them as in the default position unminimized, possibly in the background or closed if needed. Is there a use to keeping a restore icon instead of restoring it automatically?

The xml also shows minimzed="1" on the mixer, as opposed to other windows like the piano roll or the controller rack.
