KDE System Settings Crash - SDL_AddAtomicInt Missing in SDL3
Opening KDE System Settings and navigating to the Controller section causes the application to crash. Running systemsettings from the terminal shows the error. I first noticed the error when i tried launching stremio but it refused to open. Opening stremio from the terminal shows the same error. I thought it was a stremio specific issue at first so i ignored it and installed the web app version. Since it is happening elsewhere too I figured it was a system issue.
Troubleshooting Steps Taken
Rebooted the system
Verified SDL3 is installed and up to date
Searched online and in the Garuda forums but found no direct solution
