[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Thanks for the response, it did not fix the issue. I hope this doesn't
sound condescending but did you follow the steps to reproduce? It's a weird
behaviour which I think is related to window splits:

```
emacs -Q --daemon

echo "Test" > test.txt
emacsclient -c test.txt
C-x 3
C-x b *scratch*

# In new terminal
emacsclient -c test.txt

# I get a new window with the *scratch* buffer, but under Ubuntu 20.04 the
first emacsclient instance is on top also
```
