Bug Description

I tried to launch OBS studio and it force-quit without my intervention. I tried to launch Vuze torrent downloader as well and it would not start, Neovide, my neovim text editor would also not run but force-quite when I launch it, telegram desktop refuses to share or record my screen.

1. I am using Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
2. neovide:

  Candidate: 0.8.0
  Version table:
 *** 0.8.0 100

obs-studio:
  Installed: 27.2.3+dfsg1-1
  Candidate: 27.2.3+dfsg1-1
  Version table:

vuze:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: (none)
  Version table:

3. I expected that the vuze, obs studio and neovide would launch but they did not. I also expected Telegram desktop to be able to share and record my screen but it did not.

4. OBS studio and neovide flashed on screen in a split second, telegram froze after starting screen share, vuze did not run at all though it was installed using the snap-store.
