New issue by seanlaguna on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/32241

Description:
<!-- Don't request update of package. We have a script for that. https://alpha.de.repo.voidlinux.org/void-updates/void-updates.txt . However, a quality pull request may help. -->
### System
* xuname: ``Void 5.12.19_1 x86_64 AuthenticAMD uptodate rrrrmmnDFFFFFFFFFFFFFF``
* *affected package(s) including the version*: `nvidia-470.57.02_1` (etc., the set of 470.57.02_1 nvidia packages)

I'm using a 1050 Ti.

### Expected behavior
No crash

### Actual behavior
Upon upgrading from the 460.84_2 Nvidia drivers, I am having an issue with any Electron-based program (including Chromium) where the system will freeze when I close the program. Sometimes the audio will still play, but my keyboard and mouse do nothing and the audio eventually freezes too and I have to power cycle my machine. I'm not seeing anything in the logs so I'm not sure how to diagnose the problem. Happy to get any advice to figure out how to find some warning, error, etc. I also tried to `xdowngrade` the following packages which are still in my cache:

```bash
# xdowngrade \
        /var/cache/xbps/nvidia-460.84_2.x86_64.xbps \
        /var/cache/xbps/nvidia-dkms-460.84_2.x86_64.xbps \
        /var/cache/xbps/nvidia-gtklibs-460.84_2.x86_64.xbps \
        /var/cache/xbps/nvidia-libs-460.84_2.x86_64.xbps \
        /var/cache/xbps/nvidia-libs-32bit-460.84_2.x86_64.xbps \
        /var/cache/xbps/nvidia-opencl-460.84_2.x86_64.xbps
```

but I must have done something wrong, the graphical login failed and I had to boot to a root shell to re-update my drivers to get a working system.

If I `kill` or `pkill` the program it will close without any problems (hard to remember to do, leading to a lot system freezes).

### Steps to reproduce the behavior
For me, it was as simple as upgrading the Nvidia drivers and rebooting.
