Description
Describe the bug
The screen locker does not completely draw over the compositor in some cases. The screenlocker still prevents interacting with wayfire, but the contents of the desktop are mostly visible. Tested with swaylock and waylock.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
sudo runuser -l travankor -c 'WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1 XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000 swaylock'
Expected behavior
Screenlocker draws over the whole compositor, like in labwc or sway.
Wayfire version
0.9.0

Start by reproducing the issue with the provided sudo runuser command using swaylock or waylock on Wayfire 0.9.0, then trace the screenlocker and compositor rendering behavior. Done means the screenlocker completely covers the compositor while still preventing interaction, matching labwc or sway.
