sway freezes when exiting fullscreen

I'm having basically exactly this same issue however for me the trigger is changing gamma, or connecting/disconnecting displays. The freeze is a complete lockup displaying the last image on the screen, nothing on the screen changes it just becomes completely unresponsive and requires a physical poweroff or reset.

My system specs are:

sway version: 1:1.9-5 bar: i3status-rs

I am unable to collect any logs because this appears to a complete and instant lockup. No kernel events are recorded after the point which it freezes and I have to use the physical reset button. I can not raise it over the network either. The link is up but it won't respond to any connections.

I can recreate it on demand by using wl-gammarelay-rs (or any gamma color changing application, it also happens with all the other ones) to adjust the color temperature of all 5 screens simultaneously but this is not the only thing that causes it. It also happens sometimes when physically connecting/disconnecting displays. It even does this with gammarelay not installed.

AFAICT this must be made worse by the number of connected displays as I ran the system with a single monitor for a while and it was much less frequent.

I got it to be less bad by writing a script to change color temperature one display at a time but it will still freeze every other time if I try to change the 3840x1600 display directly.

It is also much less frequent on the linux-lts kernel (6.6.51-1) than on the current arch kernel (6.10.10.arch1-1).

I hope this information helps someone figure this out. Thanks!
