Bug ID: 511808
Summary: screen freezes when switching to dGPU content on
wayland (AMD)
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First 6.0.5
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]

Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
When playing Baldours Gate 3 I've noticed that the screen would freeze as soon
as the game started loading. However I also noticed that the menu sounds still
seemed to work and I even managed to stream the game to my steam deck even tho
the desktop was hard-locked not even recovering when I tried to Ctrl+Alt+F into
a different session.
I am assuming that something crashes when dGPU content is being displayed. This
also happened with another game (CONTROL) that I tested even tho in this case I
was able to recover by switching to a different session and killing the
process.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open a kde-wayland session
2. run a game that uses the dGPU
OBSERVED RESULT
Display Freezes
EXPECTED RESULT
Gameplay

and the wayland issue tracker says day-to-day issues with wayland are
responsibility of the implementation.
