OpenRGB: One or more I2C/SMBus interfaces failed to initialize.

I'm running Bazzite on a GPD Win MAX 2 (2024) and installed OpenRGB via the Bazzite Portal. Now I'm getting the following message:

WARNING: One or more I2C/SMBus interfaces failed to initialize.

The help page that is linked from there unfortunately doesn't support linux, so I'm unsure how to proceed here. I presume it's a bug because the software was included in the Bazzite Portal and thus should work, but I could also imagine that it is a problem with my specific hardware.
