I can confirm this issue on a different hardware configuration — possibly 
useful as it shows the bug isn't limited to multi-monitor or 
NVIDIA-driving-the-display setups.
System:

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS (Resolute Raccoon)
GNOME Shell 50.1-0ubuntu1.1 / libmutter-18-0 & mutter-common 50.1-0ubuntu2.2 
(latest available in resolute-updates)
Kernel 7.0.0-27-generic
Single internal panel (eDP-1) driven by Intel iGPU (Alder Lake-P, Iris Xe 
Graphics, i915), no external monitor connected
Secondary discrete GPU present (NVIDIA RTX 3050 Laptop, driver 595.71.05-open, 
nvidia-driver-595-open), PRIME in on-demand mode, not driving any display

Observed behaviour:
Same error signature as reported here:
Failed to query buffer age, got error 3003
Failed to lock front buffer on /dev/dri/card1: gbm_surface_lock_front_buffer 
failed
(card1 = Intel iGPU in my case, the GPU actually driving the display)
Triggers observed:
The error burst reliably correlates with any new-window or focus-change event, 
reproduced with:

Launching/restarting an IntelliJ IDEA instance (even after forcing 
-Dawt.toolkit.name=XToolkit to route it through XWayland instead of native 
Wayland)
Opening a new GNOME terminal (Ptyxis) window via keyboard shortcut
A PackageKit-triggered UI event during apt install
An Electron app (Slack, running with --ozone-platform=wayland) receiving window 
focus

All four triggers are otherwise unrelated apps/toolkits, which suggests the 
shared cause sits in Mutter's own surface-commit/focus-transition path rather 
than in any specific application's rendering backend.
Mitigations tried:

gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "[]" — already empty by 
default in my case, did not prevent the issue
No newer mutter/gnome-shell package available (apt-cache policy shows Candidate 
= Installed at 50.1-0ubuntu2.2 / 50.1-0ubuntu1.1)

Happy to attach a ShellJournal excerpt if useful — let me know what
format is preferred.
