I am testing this again (this is supposed to work OOTB now, at least on
Intel GPUs), and I'm seeing the following:
libva info: VA-API version 1.9.0
libva info: User environment variable requested driver 'i965'
libva info: Trying to open
/snap/chromium/1568/gnome-platform/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
even when I explicitly export
LIBVA_DRIVERS_PATH=/snap/chromium/current/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri.
This is caused by the snapcraft gnome-3-28 extension unconditionally
overriding LIBVA_DRIVERS_PATH here:
