Sunshine not starting in game mode

I'm having an issue with starting Sunshine in game mode. I have used ujust setup-sunshine and Enabled the autostart. I can see this in the logs:

I can start it manually on game mode if I restart it systemctl --user restart [email protected] Desktop mode works fine and once I'm in desktop Sunshine starts automatically and I can connect to it.

I managed to fix it. My /home/bazzite/.config/systemd/user/sunshine.service file had a mention to that AppImage. A few months ago I had installed Sunshine using AppImage as I was not aware of the ujust. I thought I had fully replaced it with the ujust version couple months ago but these might have been some leftovers.
