bazzite-gnome-nvidia sunshine not autostarting

I'm getting an issue in bazzite-gnome-nvidia:testing-41.20250101 where the sunshine service is failing to startup automatically. Is anyone else on the bazzite-gnome-nvidia image or any other gnome images experiencing this problem?

This is what I'm seeing in my log.

sunshine[6282]: Error: Client failure: Daemon connection failed
sunshine[6282]: Error reading events from display: Broken pipe
systemd[1624]: sunshine.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
systemd[1624]: sunshine.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

If I start the service manually with
systemctl enable --user --now sunshine.service
systemctl enable --user --now sunshine.service
it starts without issues. I'm thinking that the service is trying to launch too early, but that's just a guess.
