I have been attempting to run sway through sddm alongside kde as seperate sessions. What happens is when I switch to the new build and log out, sway appears in sddm but when launched it is just the classic white blinking line in the top left. After awhile it stops blinking. Then, whether I have opened sway or not, upon rebooting sway no longer appears. I’ll drop the config below, it is a little unusual since people have helped me on discord, but the result hasn’t changed.

# NixOS version config
# This option defines the first version of NixOS you have installed on this particular machine,
# and is used to maintain compatibility with application data (e.g. databases) created on older NixOS versions.
#
# Most users should NEVER change this value after the initial install, for any reason,
# even if you've upgraded your system to a new NixOS release.
#
# This value does NOT affect the Nixpkgs version your packages and OS are pulled from,
# so changing it will NOT upgrade your system - see https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/#sec-upgrading for how
# to actually do that.
#
# This value being lower than the current NixOS release does NOT mean your system is
# out of date, out of support, or vulnerable.
#
# Do NOT change this value unless you have manually inspected all the changes it would make to your configuration,
