Electron apps don't open on Nvidia desktops

Help
1

My desktop has I7 + GTX 980, I formatted my computer and installed nixos, I followed the wiki to install the Nvidia driver: Nvidia - NixOS Wiki

After that, everything is fine. In my obs-studio, I can use my NVENC encoding, but when I try to use bitwarden, discord, vscode or any application created by electron, it doesn’t work.

Can anyone help me?

That error might be due to the need to configure hardware acceleration for NVIDIA:

hardware.opengl.enable = true;
hardware.opengl.extraPackages = [ pkgs.libvdpau-va-gl ]; #NVIDIA doesn't support libvdpau, so this package will redirect VDPAU calls to LIBVA.

environment.variables.VDPAU_DRIVER = "va_gl";
environment.variables.LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME = "nvidia";

Also check /run/opengl-driver/lib/dri/ to ensure the files it tried to load exist.
