Cannot start X11 version on Wayland #6

I am running Void Linux with sway and wanted to start the graphical version of nncmpp.
Normally, Wayland should recognize that a X11 application is starting and transparently opening it using XWayland.
This does not work for nncmpp --x11, I get this error:

X Error of failed request:  BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter)
Major opcode of failed request:  23 (X_GetSelectionOwner)
Atom id in failed request:  0x0
Serial number of failed request:  11
Current serial number in output stream:  11

I have no idea if the problem is to be found within nncmpp, (X)Wayland or sway. I can start other X11 program without issues thought. Do you have a possible idea or even solution?

Odd, I suspect one of the selections is missing. I'll look into it.

I see it. A workaround could be https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xsettingsd
