Waydroid Won't Start (Bazzite Deck Gnome)

Hi, I'm having an issue when I try launching Waydroid. I followed the tutorial on the Universal Blue website and after running Step 2, Waydroid refuses to open. When I run the command: waydroid show-full-ui I get the error: Wayland socket '/run/user/1000/wayland-0' doesn't exist; are you running a Wayland compositor? Is this because I'm running Gnome or is there a way that it can work? I had a look and it says I'm on X11. Any help would be really appreciated! Note: I'm on a physical Steam Deck.

you need to use wayland instead of xorg

I did some digging and came across that command but it didn't do anything when I ran it

That means you have auto login enabled. Disable it

If I hit Log Out it just puts me into Game Mode
