Research direction
Start by reproducing the report with wsldhost.exe --daemon --display localhost:6000, VcXsrv on port 6000, the .wsld.toml X11 option, and the .profile automation. Observe the loop stopping and compare xset q with the reported display output. Done means identifying why wsld freezes after connecting and documenting or verifying a fix for WSL applications failing to launch.
