Black screen on boot

After having shut down my Steam Deck with Bazzite in desktop mode yesterday, I booted it up tonight. Instead of it booting up, it seemed to "unsuspend" but only got a black screen, "B" caused ^[ and "A" a new line. When "booting" it was connected to the official dock with a keyboard, mouse, and HDMI display and stereo speakers through the AUX port.

Update: I disconnected all the peripherals and force rebooted, it booted up correctly. I am NOT able to reproduce the issue. The two variables I'm unable to control that may affect whether I can reproduce the issue are 1) having installed an update yesterday and 2) having set up and used the funky KDE wallpaper engine plugin.
