Progress, mabye? I dont know anything about dbus sorry and this doesnt seem to be a common issue online

In hyprland.conf (only one user on machine so i left it constant):

env = DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS,unix:path=/run/user/1000/bus

echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS:

unix:path=/run/user/1000/bus

Running vesktop from terminal gives the following:

Similar setup and issue here, however starting hyprland with dbus-run-session does not solve the issue (in fact it makes it worse by breaking screen recording in OBS, option for pipewire doesnt even show up)

The problem is environment variable DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS not being set, this can be fixed by running vesktop with dbus-launch or dbus-run-session but this means you have to launch vesktop from a terminal each time

Would love a more permanent solution
