Steam: black window
Hybrid graphics, both AMD, tried switching to dGPU too. Plasma 6 Wayland.
Running stream through menu icon or through `switcherooctl launch steam` displays a black window. Running only `steam` works. In both cases I get the same output:
steam.sh[23315]: Running Steam on arch rolling 64-bit
steam.sh[23315]: STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
setup.sh[23392]: Steam runtime environment up-to-date!
steam.sh[23315]: Steam client's requirements are satisfied

Re: Steam: black window
It's not going to use VAAPI for the HW accelerated interface but OpenGL. There are some known regressions with the current mesa release in multi GPU scenarios, see e.g.: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=305727
