All the recommendations I’ve seen is to fallback to XWindows. So just wondering if the Manjaro/KDE community has any other alternative solutions ?
Operating System: Manjaro Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.12.0
Qt Version: 6.9.0
Kernel Version: 6.12.21-4-MANJARO (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i7-6560U CPU @ 2.20GHz
Memory: 15.5 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: Intel® Iris® Graphics 540
Mod edit:- Image removed.
What problem should we see here? 
Please provide system information as described (below). I suggest replacing the fastfetch information in your initial post.
Regards.
Welcome to the Manjaro community
As a new or infrequent forum user, please take some time to familiarise yourself with Forum requirements, and the many ways to use the forum to your benefit:
The Update Announcements contain important information and a Known Issues and Solutions section that should generally be checked before posting a request for support.
While information from *-fetch type apps might be fine for someone wishing to buy your computer, for Support purposes it’s better to ask your system directly; 
Output of the inxi command with appropriate parameters will achieve this (naturally, formatted according to forum guidelines) and will generally be more useful for those wishing to help:
inxi --filter --verbosity=8
or the short form:
inxi -zv8
Be prepared to provide output from other commands whenever asked. It’s equally important to provide as much actionable information as possible in your first post, rather than simply indicating there is a problem.
Looks like the image I shared was removed. It just shows HiDPi issues where the UI is all bunched up. This is apparently well known issue with wayland and I wondered if there were workarounds that didn’t include falling back to running in X
I’m on Manjaro 25.0.0
Looks like Audacity 3.x won’t support Wayland[1]
Wayland is unsupported in the current version of Audacity and if it were enabled, would cause a massive memory leak. Audacity 4 will support it though.
FS#77335 : [audacity] Add GDK_BACKEND=x11 to .desktop to prevent memory leaks
Adding
GDK_BACKEND=x11to the Exec line in /usr/share/applications/audacity.desktop would solve this issue until upstream finishes rewriting the gui layer.
Also suggest try using ocenaudio-bin from AUR (depends on qt6-base)
Just wondering, if I’m running KDE Plasma under Wayland, will it honor running
$ GDK_BACKEND=x11 audacity from the CLI ?
I just tried and the interface doesn’t look like it’s been affected.
It seems the current Audacity doesn’t correctly support HiDPI, we have to wait until they finish releasing the new Qt version.
First, check you have this option enabled, because “Scaled by the system” will force scaling, but it becomes blurry.
Then, run audacity with the following command, while adjusting your scaling via GDK_SCALE and GDK_DPI_SCALE arguments:
GDK_BACKEND=x11 GDK_SCALE=1.5 GDK_DPI_SCALE=1.5 audacity
Thank you very much, kind person. This did the trick.
