Background image vanishes after scaling change #15

Performed a fresh install of Arch and Hyprland (using the V4 script). Checked all major features and everything worked fine. Edited hyperland.conf monitors setting from ",preferred,auto,auto" (the default) to ",3840x2160@60,auto,1.5". Screen blanked for a second to apply the new settings. When it returned, the new scaling was applied, but the wallpaper was gone, leaving a black background. Switching between light and dark mode didn't bring it back. Neither did a reboot. Nor returning the monitor settings to default. Everything else still seems to work fine, I just don't have any wallpaper.

My system is a Ryzen 7735HS CPU with Radeo 680M graphics, 32GB DDR4 RAM, and a 1TB NVMe drive, so there are no Nvidia shenanigans going on.

It looks like swww has a bug. Deleting the ~/.cache/swww directory typically fixes it along with deleting the /run/user/1000/swww.socket and re-initializing with swww init.

I have had the same issue and this has solved it for me.
