Additional context
Edited to add additional affected versions.
Correction. This behavior will exhibit at any time while the app is running if the network interfaces change. Access to the Internet is not required. This seems to be solely based on whether there is a network interface.
If there is only a loopback interface, then the menus are broken.
$ ip link
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
If you add an interface (even without actual connectivity to the Internet), the menus work correctly (without needing to restart the app).
$ ip link
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP mode DEFAULT group 1 qlen 1000
link/ether aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
If you then remove the network interface, the menu items will return to their broken, abbreviated state.
