Current Behavior

I can't use gamescope run vkcube and steam games. when I run steam games it displays no videos but only sound and steam set a STOP button means that the game is running.

I can see a Xwayland and the game running in btop, but no picture

console-linux.txt

and when I run gamescope --vkcube I got a ‘Failed to get Wayland objects‘ and the vkcube doesn't even running in the background (the instruction end and gamescope didn't show in btop) I dont know if they are same problem but the error message didn't shown in steam log

Steps To Reproduce

run gamescope --vkcube in Terminal
