Describe the bug
When I go into VR for the first time after booting my computer, the desktop view does not show up. This also applies to x11, but when I restart it, the desktop view is no longer invisible. On x11 it begins to work functionally. On Wayland it is just a black screen. Although the mouse cursor appears, and my PC shows a notification of if I wish to give SteamVR permissions to give inputs. Allowing does not show the desktop.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open SteamVR on Wayland,
  2. Restart so that desktop view is not invisible
  3. When desktop view shows up, it is a black screen.

Expected behavior
To see my desktop and be able to interact with it.

I thought this is a different issue, because I do not experience any crashing while that issue reports crashing.
