OpenTabletDriver can't detect supported tablet

I know this is 2 issues, sorry... they were both part of the same process.

I have a Gaomon S620 tablet and it can both be detected on Windows and is on the list of supported tablets. I am running "Bazzite 42 Developer Experience (NVIDIA)" (bazzite-dx). The tablet is detected in KDE's tablet settings page.

Originally I installed OpenTabletDriver using Bazaar, and the tablet was not detected, with the logs showing "No tablets were detected". I uninstalled the Flatpak version and installed it again using ujust install-opentabletdriver. The tablet was still not detected with the same error.

Then I attempted to follow the answer on the guide at this link: https://docs.bazzite.gg/General/community-links/?h=opentabletdriver#hardware which consists of running the command rpm-ostree kargs --append=modprobe.blacklist=hid_uclogic. After rebooting I launched OpenTabletDriver again but got the error Connecting to daemon has timed out. Verify that OpenTabletDriver.Daemon is running. I followed the advice on the OpenTabletDriver wiki to run systemctl --user enable opentabletdriver.service --now but the same error occurred.

Any ideas on how I can get the driver to detect my tablet?

Edit: somehow i got it to load again... and only once. the tablet didn't show up and it doesn't come up in kde either
