OBS 31.1 behaving oddly on Nobara 42 GNOME – stays running but no GUI, overlay broken

Hello,
First of all, thank you so much for your amazing work on Nobara. I'm sorry for asking this here, but I wasn’t sure where this kind of question would get noticed the fastest.

I'm using Nobara 42 (GNOME) on ryzen 5 5600X and RX 6800 XT, and after the recent update to OBS 31.1, the application became quite unstable on my system.

  • When I close OBS, it keeps running in the background with no tray icon or visual indication, and I can’t reopen the GUI.
  • When I try to launch it again, it says it's already running and asks if I want to start another instance.
  • The StreamElements overlay no longer appears, and I’m unsure whether that’s an OBS or StreamElements issue.
  • Lastly, my webcam feed starts to lag when I switch between scenes.
I already know that the cause is the Borwer source plug-in, because when I disable it and remove it from the list of used plug-ins, the program starts normally. I must admit that not being able to use Stream Elements is very frustrating for me.
Has anyone else reported this? Again, thank you for all the work you do!
