[NVIDIA] frames stop being presented (and appear to hang) sporadically when using the WSI layer and HDR

Is there an existing issue for this?

[X] I have searched the existing issues

Are you using any gamescope patches or a forked version of gamescope?

[X] The issue occurs on upstream gamescope without any modifications

Current Behavior

Some games, especially Sony PlayStation ports, seem to hang and stop presenting frames even while game audio remains in the background. The most consistent repro I have of this now is with God of War: Ragnarok, with the launch option: gamescope --hdr-enabled -e -f -h 2160 -w 7680 -r 120 -- %command%

around 50% of the time, the game will hang at some point within the first 20-30 seconds or so. will include screenshots of what this looks like + in-game settings

Steps To Reproduce

Launch God of War: Ragnarok with gamescope --hdr-enabled -e -f -h 2160 -w 7680 -r 120 -- %command%
Attempt to load the game
If gamescope hangs on one frame, while otherwise remaining responsive, you've hit the issue

If you don't freeze on launch and load-in, try quitting and re-launching 1-2 more times.

@cubanismo I was still able to repro the WSI hang in God of War: Ragnarok, here's a new issue report as there were no matches I was finding

Can confirm the same issue with Elden Ring on 565.57.01 with launch command: gamescope -w 3840 -h 2160 --adaptive-sync -f --hdr-enabled --fullscreen -- %command%

Game launches, HDR works. After 3-5 minutes of gameplay usually hangs with sound running in background.
