If I try to attach a window capture to my mixer, it gives me a X of "unknown" windows with either black / OBS menu as the output, X being the amount of windows I currently have open. Sometimes, the first time I open the menu for the window capture it gives me a randomly chosen window (such as thunderbird), it later disappears and goes back to either being a black screen / the OBS menu.
The issue occurs in both prepackaged (AUR) versions and building from obs-studio on github.
Attached is a screencap of the capture menu.
Here is the terminal output while adding a new window source:
