App doesn't launch on Debian Bookworm

Hi,

I recently updated to Debian 12 Bookworm, and since the update the app won't launch.

I get a black window for a few seconds when the app launchs, then it closes itself. I don't get an error message. 

The app was working fine on Debian 11.

I tried uninstalling then reinstalling the app, but I still got the same problem. I don't have an antivirus.

Here's the log from when I try to launch the app via the console:
