Second monitor freezing

Hey guys, I'm a new user and a pretty big Linux noob. I've been hanging out on Bazzite for a few days now and stuff mostly works fine, but whenever I play any video game on main monitor I can't interact with my second monitor anymore. Like when I try to open a new tab on FireFox nothing visually happens, but after I close the game I do see new empty tabs. So it does register clicks but it doesn't visually do anything while a game is running. I've looked through the posts here but couldn't really find anything. This is my fast fetch Has anyone encountered this? Ty!

As far as I know that is an Nvidia exclusive issue. Try changing the refresh rate of the monitor that is freezing. And when the monitor freezes try turning it off and on again, that usually fixes it.

I tried the refresh (setting them both to the same refresh rate) but that didn't help So this is just hardware related then, no immediate fix?

Think it's more nvidia driver related which Bazzite can't fix. If you turn the screen off and on again does it unfreeze?

I've not tried yet. I'm mucking through the nvidia forums atm
