I remember having the same problem. IIRC, the app does not quit, it
hides instead. So you need to call show().
The following code works for me:
if( settings->stayAlwaysOnTop )
setWindowFlags( windowFlags() | Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint );
else
setWindowFlags( windowFlags() & (~ Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint) );
show();
