Hi!
What desktop environment do you use? And does it run on Wayland or X11?

I looked at similar upstream issues and found:
https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud/issues/1598
https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud/issues/1591
https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud/issues/1516

Some people seem to have found a workaround with disabling integrated
GPU or changing
config options gpu_list and pci_dev.

There are also these, but they were reported for 0.7.1 and 0.7.2 so
probably not related.
https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud/issues/1506
https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud/issues/1523

You could also try the version distributed on GitHub by mangohud to
confirm that it's
an upstream bug and not a packaging one.
