Does anyone know how to get screen capture working in OBS on Wayland? (lemmings.world)

It works fine on X, but switching to Wayland grays out the option to select which window.

The button in OBS is called "screen capture" but when you press it, you can select "window" which results in only the window being captured, even though OBS says "screen"...

You can see it working in my screenshots. It captures only the window I selected (Dolphin, the file manager)
