I'm seeing what I believe to be the same issue with Visual Studio Code.
If I try to start it after logging in using Gnome on Wayland, I find
myself looking at a login screen. (If I login to Gnome on Xorg this does
not happen.)

There is a core file in my home directory


There is also a file in /var/crashes
hbarta@karakum:~$ ls /var/crash
_usr_bin_pulseaudio.1000.crash  _usr_bin_Xwayland.1000.crash
hbarta@karakum:~$ 

hbarta@karakum:~$ file core
core: ELF 64-bit LSB core file x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), SVR4-style, from 
'/usr/bin/Xwayland :0 -rootless -terminate -accessx -core -listen 4 -listen 5 
-d', real uid: 1000, effective uid: 1000, real gid: 1000, effective gid: 1000, 
execfn: '/usr/bin/Xwayland', platform: 'x86_64'
hbarta@karakum:~$ 

I tried to install debug symbols for Xwayland but cannot.

hbarta@karakum:~$ sudo apt install xwayland-dbgsym
[sudo] password for hbarta:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

2:1.19.6-1ubuntu4 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
hbarta@karakum:~$ 

I have the same problem on Debian Testing but not Fedora 28. (On Debian
testing I am not running vs code as a snap.)

I would like to use Wayland for the improved monitor scaling so I can
use a 1600x1200 eternal monitor with a QHD laptop.

If there is any further information I could provide (and I'm sure I'm
light in this regard) please let me know.
