Yes, I am on Sway.

This works! Thanks.

I'm all-set for a file manager. I just noticed this problem while
comparing several of them and their performance. I believe pcmanfm,
pcmanfm-qt, thunar, caja, and dolphin all worked okay on Wayland. At the
least they didn't crash on launch.
I guess it sounds like this is an upstream bug then. Not sure if this
should be closed or not. I'll leave that up to someone else to decide.
