I am running NixOS on my Dell Precision 5530 with a Nvidia Quadro P1000. I followed this guide (Nvidia - NixOS Wiki) to set up my GPU with PRIME Sync. My GPU will work completely fine on Xorg but is simply not used on Wayland. I have tried using elements of the configuration in this repo (nixos-hardware/dell/precision/5530 at master · NixOS/nixos-hardware · GitHub) as well as importing the whole thing as suggested but I have not had any luck. I also have tried the Nouveau drivers without any success. I am relatively new to Nix OS so any suggestions are very appreciated. Bellow are my configuration.nix and hardware-configuration.nix files:
