I don't know if it's related, but after an update that landed between
Sunday and Monday, I'm experiencing a number of graphical issues in
Oracular with all tested versions of the NVIDIA proprietary drivers.

I did a clean reinstall of Oracular, and here are the results:

nouveau:
- Everything works, but there's no sound (I'm using the speakers of my monitor, 
connected via DisplayPort)

nvidia 560:
- Plasma X11 = loading screen spins for a while, then black screen with cursor
- Plasma Wayland = black screen with cursor
- GNOME X11 = blank wallpaper
- GNOME Wayland = the desktop works, but apps using GPU acceleration are 
bugged, failing to launch or working slowly

nvidia 550:
- Plasma X11 = works fine
- Plasma Wayland = black screen with cursor

Kernel 6.11.0-7-generic. On Sunday (September 15), everything worked.

  [regression] Very poor performance in Nvidia Wayland sessions

Bug description:
  I've just tried the Nvidia-560 driver for the first time and am seeing
  very poor performance in Wayland sessions. Just tapping the Super key
  I can see animations stuttering.

  In 'NVIDIA Settings' it looks like the reason might be a lack of power
  profiles ("Performance Levels"). Those are only reported correctly if
  I log into Xorg. And indeed performance in Xorg sessions is much
  higher, more like what I would expect.

  P.S. Performance on this machine is much worse in upstream GNOME
  without triple buffering. So triple buffering is doing its job.
