Description of the issue: Brave browser is not showing the GUI when launched
How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Install the latest image of Ubuntu 23.03 beta
  2. Install Brave according to these instructions
  3. Run Brave using the Activities window or boot up a terminal and write brave-browser. The terminal will have no output and will remain stuck.

Expected result: Brave just working

Brave Version: 112.1.50.119

Additional Information: I’m using a completely fresh install of Ubuntu 23.04 so I’m expecting Brave to just work. Just a few packages have been installed by me manually, including xcape and build-essential. During the installation, I enabled download additional hardware drivers but the rest of the settings have been left untouched. On 22.04 on the same machine, Brave worked perfectly fine.

This is weird … I simply did a restart and suddenly everything works! Brave launches and my 1Password isn’t having some weird issues anymore. No idea why, but I guess this solves my issue!
