sway with SDL does not update window automatically

Hello! I have written a simple SDL programm that draws an Object, and moves it when pressing a key or automatically during an infinite loop.
On Ubuntu with X this works as expected. On my Arch with wayland only and sway, the program draws the first screen, but ONLY updates when I "refresh" the workspace (e.g. 2) by pressing SUPER+2.
I have to do this after any change, otherwise the window stays static. Everythings up to date and I have tried SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland with no effect.
Does someone know a solution?

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan
