Unsure of if is the best way to ask for support, but I'm doing it anyway. I've been trying to get this to help me with virtual displays for a few months to no success. Today I pulled the latest updates from git, reset everything with python3 lutristosunshine.py display reset then reinitialized using python3 lutristosunshine.py display, selecting option 1 to set up the display. I've confirmed I have sway installed, as well as swaybg and xdg-desktop-portal-wlr, updated pip dependencies, and restarted sunshine several times. Despite this, any connection to sunshine opens a game on my main monitor, with the moonlight client receiving no display whatsoever. Any and all help here would be worth so much to me. Thanks a million in advance.

What's your distro? And DE? Can you share some logs? How is sunshine installed? flatpak? native? app image?
