apitrace fails to work on NixOS. I get "X screen is not using the NVIDIA driver" and "Failed to create EGL display" if I launch my gl application with apitrace.

$ apitrace trace --api gl /nix/store/ldaccwl6x32n6fmmw3w6wx337y63ffpm-wlroots/rootston/rootston

NOTE: The application runs fine if I launch it without apitrace.
