Dolphin Emulator on Distrobox freezes on game launch with MangoHud enabled
Unsure if this is a problem with Distrobox or what, but it used to work. Simply fails to render and stops responding with some high CPU usage. Something else I've noticed is that
/usr/share/vulkan/implicit_layer.d/MangoHud.x86_64.json & libMangoApp.x86_64.json from host are being mounted in the box? Can't seem to remove them. MangoHud is installed in there, as it needed to be back when it did work.
Could replicate it both in ghcr.io/ublue-os/arch-distrobox:latest and quay.io/toolbx/arch-toolbox:latest. Also in dolphin-emu, dolphin-emu-git and dolphin-emu-primehack-git.

Of course, I am on a recent
:testing build
Works fine on Bazzite 40, afraid this might be a Distrobox 1.8.0 issue.do the flatpaks also fail?
Installing them now, but the Steam overlay will not work on Flatpaks at all currently afaik
On Distrobox there's at least a chance of it working
Works on Flatpak
Going to open up an issue on the Distrobox repo, seems to affect everything
