The cause seems to be in the same area like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2222057 , that is assigned to mesa now. When i downgrade these mesa libs to the shown version the phenomenon is gone: mesa-dri-drivers-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm mesa-libEGL-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm mesa-libgbm-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm mesa-libGL-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm mesa-libglapi-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm mesa-libOpenCL-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm mesa-libOpenCL-devel-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm mesa-libOSMesa-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm i did not research, which is the last version without the issue.
This issue seems gone today with Fedora 38. Mesa seems to have been fixed.
