ack. Is yours the "ubuntu" session? i.e. auto-detection, the default, 
not "ubuntu-xorg" which is manually selecting "Ubuntu on Xorg" from gdm.  
Check $DESKTOP_SESSION. I can confirm that if I pick ubuntu-xorg then 
nvidia-smi looks like yours.

I see from `lsmod` that nvidia is loaded - apparently that's not enough 
to get it to be used though. I would have expected the udev rule 
(61-gdm.rules) to have fired here and caused gdm-disable-wayland to run, 
so that I got Xorg and things running on the nvidia GPU; is that a valid 
expectation?

  [nvidia-prime] switches between xorg and wayland session

Bug description:
  I have noticed this on a hirsute install from today's RC media
  (20210420) with ubuntu-drivers-common 1:0.8.9.1.

  The first boot is always xorg, and nvidia mode is selected.

  After that reboots are *usually* wayland, but sometimes they are xorg
  too.

  Performance mode is selected in nvidia-settings, which is supposed to
  mean nvidia & therefore xorg but it's not working. Selecting it
  explicitly doesn't help either.

  What is the default meant to be - probably ondemand?

  Seems like it's somehow nondeterministic. Attaching some logs.
