[AMD] [xwayland] Steam Freezes with -git build
Hi,
Initally I thought this would be an issues from the explicit sync patches but it appears to be upstream issue, where I required to pull in patches to have a correct applying. After testing the -git build without the explicit sync patches, this issue was still present. I think the issue should come from this series: https://github.com/CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS/blob/master/nvidia-explicit-sync/xorg-xwayland/upstream.patch
it appears with this patch people have issues with "steam". I just quote from our discord:
Opening Steam, both native and runtime, with patched xwayland the UI does not seem to update when clicking on elements such as tabs (Store, Library, etc)
or clicking on games when in Library view.
The only way it seems to update and act normally is whenever the window is maximized or snapped to a side or corner of the screen via the window manager.
The last known working version on cachyos-v4 was 23.2.3-1 according to my notes.
Since then, version 23.2.4-2.1 from cachyos-extra-v4 seems to work as expected as well.
Some information, the patched version is all time in the "cachyos-v4" repository and the unpatched version is in the "cachyos-extra-v4" repository. We have tried a stable xorg-xwayland with the patch, as well as a -git version inclusive the patch. Removing the patch does fix the issue.

Disabling the iGPU does not help. It is also nothing visible in the journalctl logs or dmesg logs.
