This could be <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2570>.

What is logged in the systemd journal when this crash occurs?

A backtrace from the crash would be very useful information for this or any
other crash. Please see <https://wiki.debian.org/HowToGetABacktrace>:
usually the easiest way is to use the systemd-coredump package, as described
in <https://wiki.debian.org/HowToGetABacktrace#Core_dump>.
