Sometimes messages from the Matrix side come across with the generic bridge app as the user's avatar.

I have talked it through with @Half-Shot and he says:

I think it's something about how we cache all member state in the bridge, except I think that cache has holes in it

As a workaround, you can change your display name in the Matrix room temporarily (/myroomnick ... in Riot), send a message, change it back, and things work as expected from that point on.

I've also seen this in a couple of my rooms, but with the addition of losing the display name, so Slack ends up seeing only the MXID as well (which would of course make sense since both avatar and display name come from the member event).
