CUPTI_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED when profiling cuda program

Hardware:
nvidia RTX3080 Ti for laptop

Software:
linux-zen 6.3.9.zen1-1
nvidia-dkms 535.54.03-1
cuda 12.1.1-4
cuda-tools 12.1.1-4

nsys-ui, a GPU profiler shipped with cuda-tools, fails to collect cuda metrics with the error code CUPTI_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED.
The official document (URL: https://docs.nvidia.com/cupti/r_main.html ) states that this error is returned if CUDA driver version is not compatible with the CUPTI version.
Note that my program is working properly on other Ubuntu machines, and I cannot resolve the problem by downgrading nvidia-dkms to 530.41 (for 525, kernel modules did not compile!).
Is there any workaround for that? Thank you in advance!
