Hyprpaper not rendering after unlocking immediately after login

see https://github.com/hyprwm/hyprpaper/issues/263

hyprpaper not loading immediately but only after I unlock hyprlock (which I have as exec-once). this means that I see a gray background for the first split-second after I unlock my laptop after the session start.

as can be seen in the video, the wallpaper is visible in the first frames, before hyprlock starts. it is not however during the fade-out. sometimes, instead of just gray, I see a gray screen with a "transparent" wallpaper, almost as if it was a frozen fade animation (which is exactly what I see if I make hyprlock use a screenshot background)

Hmm that is odd, because the screenshot seems to be correctly blurred and such. It is supposed to use this very same screenshot for fade out and just sweep from the blurred version to the not blurred version. So yeah this is a bug probably.

I will look into it soon.

sorry this looks really misleading. What you see being blurred is literally a pre-blurred image, as that's slightly faster than using a screenshot and therefore makes the screen look blurred a bit before it actually blurs. I know it's stupid but I swear it makes sense lol
