Ubunto 20.04 moving to flatpak install but NVENC error

I am currently running OBS Studio on Ubuntu, which was installed from the GUI. It's stuck at 27.1.3 and won't update any more. I have issues with websockets crashing on connect, but Nvidia NVENC is working.

So I installed OBS 27.2.4 via flatpak. Web sockets is working but I can't stream because it pops up an error "failed to open NVENC codec: Function not implemented"

Why would it fail now when the same driver is working on the other install in the same system?

Frustrated...I appreciate the help.

thank you
