I'm using openSUSE Tumbleweed w/ snapshot 20240523 and GNOME 46.1. 

GNOME's built-in screen recording does not work. Steps to reproduce the bugs
are the following:

- Press Prtsc key
- Select "Screen recording"
- Select either region or whole screen
- Press the record red button
- Wait ~23 seconds
- You will receive a notification "Screencast failed to start"

On GNOME's GitLab there's already a bug covering this issue, although it has
been closed despite some users (Using Tumbleweed like me) are still
experiencing this problem.

Following the issue post i just linked, I noticed that I get the same error as
the author:
