Linux mitx 6.0.6-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sat, 29 Oct 2022 14:08:39 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I'm running X11, no DE, just a window manager XMonad, picom as compositor.

Pipewire Multimedia Session Manager service is running (wireplumber).
xdg-desktop-portal is running.

I have no problem with others applications screencasting like firefox, discord, peek etc..

Hi, is this still reproducible in the latest version: 2.2.4?

[SeaDve]

The thing I notice in other bug reports and here is it seems to only happens with X11.

Changing to Wayland solved my issue.
