Display blacks out while opening and closing applications on Wayland KDE.

I just got a AMD RX6600 because I was having issues with my old gtx 1660 super. It's not a big upgrade but I got this card for $120 (and it was only lightly used for 5 months by the seller).

I wanted to give wayland a try and It was working fine for a few hours but now, the screen blacks out every time I open or close an application.

I have tried restarting, logging out and logging back in. Also updated the system, mesa packages etc. (This is on a fresh install of Opensuse Tumbleweed, but I also had the same issue on my Artix install with xfce)

~Strangely enough, the issue doesn't seem to affect my Hyprland session much.~ Now it's also coming in my Hyprland session.

The GPU works fine on Windows too. No black screen there.

EDIT: I fixed it. I enabled the packman repo at some point, which had slightly older packages and that caused the problem. Everything got sorted out once I deprioritized the packman repo and updated the system.
