The latest Emacs initialization hook

Question

I am currently running Emacs as a desktop with EXWM. And I am trying to run some apps on startup to see them in a EXWM's systemtray:

(defun run-auto-start ()
   (start-process-shell-command "pnmixer" nil "/bin/pnmixer")
   (start-process-shell-command "nm-applet" nil "/bin/nm-applet"))

I have attached this function to exwm-init-hook. But it seems that it is too early for a system tray to work properly, because sometimes these apps do not appear in a systemtray or only one of them does. (I initialize systemtray with (exwm-systemtray-enable) before attaching the function to the hook) However if I evaluate those two lines manually after Emacs finished loading, pn-mixer and nm-applet immediately launch and go to the system tray.

So what is the last Emacs initialization hook I can use to execute my shell commands as late as possible to avoid running them manually? Maybe there is some hack to emulate this kind of "late hook"?..

P.S. I have tries after-init-hook and emacs-startup-hook none of them work well

Refer to C-hig (elisp)Startup Summary RET

The only startup hook which runs after emacs-startup-hook is window-setup-hook:

This is very similar to ‘emacs-startup-hook’.  The only difference
is that this hook runs after frame parameters have been set up in
response to any settings from your init file.  Unless this matters
to you, use ‘emacs-startup-hook’ instead.  (The name of this hook
is due to historical reasons, and does not reflect its purpose
very well.)

If that (window-setup-hook) doesn't work either, you could use one of the startup hooks to start a timer via run-with-timer, so that your code runs after some brief delay.
