GUI toolkits (due to bugs) default to X11 except Gtk3 and winit.
Try starting gtk3-demo explicitly with GDK_BACKEND=wayland and
GDK_BACKEND=x11 to rule out Xwayland as the primary cause.

Check key presses via wev, wshowkeys or gtk3-demo. If you don't have a
working terminal emulator due to Xwayland issues try alacritty.
