If it's the 1st time to start cosmic (or probably the user deleted all config and cache files of cosmic), obs studio can't find screen capture source
IMG_20241107_090424After logging out cosmic and restarting cosmic, obs can find the source.

It seems some cache isn't in user's home dir so reinstalling the whole system can delete all cache or making a Live iso. A Live iso stores everything in RAM by default so restarting the computer clears all cache.

It's not just OBS—Cosmic screengrab fails too. Logging out and back in seems to fix it.
