Symptoms

When you launch CD PROJEKT RED games their Red launcher will stop working correctly after a couple of attempts. The UI will be frozen even tho the launcher still "works" you cannot see your cursor and cannot see what you are clicking.

This has been occurring for atleast 2 years now btw, i just thought it would be fixed by now but its still happening.

Doesn't matter if its running under xwayland or wine wayland the problem happens either way.

Reproduction

1. Launch any CD PROJEKT RED game multiple times
2. Notice after multiple times that the Red launcher UI will be frozen
3. Cant see what you are interacting on the Red launcher even tho it still works and the game eventually launches

Example of this problem.
