Description jan.claussen10 2024-03-13 08:08:05 UTC 
SUMMARY
xwaylandvideobridge fails when trying to screen share since I've upgraded to Plasma 6. It happens only on my work laptop, which is an NVidia Optimus laptop and my other two laptops with Intel and AMD GPUs work well. I have heard from other Arch Linux users with Nvidia laptops, that it works for them. No idea what is wrong. Maybe something got broken during upgrading to Plasma 6.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install KDE Plasma 6 with Pipewire on a Dell Precision 5570
2. Run a Wayland sesssion and try to screen share in Teams

OBSERVED RESULT
KDE notifies 

Failed to connect PipeWire context 

When running xwaylandvideobridge in the shell you get 

org.kde.xwaylandvideobridge: XDG session failed: QMap() 2

EXPECTED RESULT
xwaylandvideobridge should not crash

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 
Qt Version: 6.6.2
