[bazzite/nvidia] Plymouth "nvidia kernel module not loaded. Falling back to nouveau"

I switched from kinoite to bazzite with nvidia about a month ago. With recent updates, I'm getting the message in the title during boot. My kargs:

rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau modprobe.blacklist=nouveau nvidia-drm.modeset=1 nowatchdog gpu_sched.sched_policy=0 nvidia_drm.modeset=1

Can't tell if auto-updates are working.

Running bazzite-nvidia on bare metal. How do auto-updates work? ublue-update is installed but I can't find any of the config files in these locations

"$HOME"/.config/ublue-update/ublue-update.conf
/etc/ublue-update/ublue-update.conf
/usr/etc/ublue-update/ublue-update.conf

"$HOME"/.config/ublue-update/ublue-update.conf
/etc/ublue-update/ublue-update.conf
/usr/etc/ublue-update/ublue-update.conf

Also couldn't find update units/timers in systemctl list-units and systemctl list-timers either. I rebased from kinoite using

podman pull ghcr.io/ublue-os/config && rpm-ostree install --assumeyes --apply-live --force-replacefiles $(find ~/.local/share/containers -name ublue-os-signing.noarch.rpm 2>/dev/null) && rpm-ostree rebase --uninstall $(rpm -q ublue-os-signing-* --queryformat '%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{Arch}') ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-nvidia:latest
