Hello, since a few days ago, I've been having problems. I'm on Debian 13 x64/XFCE, up to date as of yesterday, currently running VRCX (Linux) Nightly 2025-10-25T13.32-24f8765. I've also tried stable and nightlies back to 10-17, and without any command line arguments, all with no luck.

First, and the big one for me, auto accepting invite requests stopped working. I have a group set up in vrchat specifically for people to be able to join on me, with the vrcx favorites set to that group, and auto accept from vrcx favorites.. But, when I get a request now it only shows up in the vrcx notification log, but no longer sends the approval or shows the popups in the application like before where it saw it and sent the approval. Setting it to all favorites makes no difference.

Testing that made me notice the complete lack of desktop notifications. In order to get them to start working again, I had to change the 'when to display' from Desktop Mode to Always. I'm guessing possibly related to the accepting invites, like vrcx isn't properly detecting what state my vrchat is in and what it's doing?

And unsure if related, but screenshots almost never have the world id appended to the filename anymore. Has only worked for a brief period this morning for the first time since the 20th. The world/user data inserted in the image comments is still being put there, though. This has always failed for me when vrcx was started after vrchat, but now usually just doesn't work at all.

The logfile is short and just has the one warning...

Let me know if there's any other information I can post to hopefully help with figuring this out, I've dug around, but have come up with nothing.
