I hadn't noticed it that, but I can reproduce that currently.

To be honest, I do not know if this is a bug in the game or in SDL or
in GNOME Wayland or Wayland libraries or something else so I am not
confident in applying this workaround.

If it does get added, I think I would do it in the upstream source,
before SDL gets initialised.

I'm asking folks on the #debian-games channel who use non-GNOME Wayland
to test and see if they have the same issue. Hopefully this can narrow
down where the bug might be.
