Sunshine black screen - "Can't stream monitor [100]" error on headless AWS server

Hey, I'm running CloudyPad on an AWS g4dn.xlarge (Tesla T4 GPU) with Sunshine for game streaming to Moonlight. Most games work fine but Ghost of Tsushima shows a black screen even though the game is running (confirmed via nvidia-smi showing the process using GPU).

Setup: AWS g4dn.xlarge (Tesla T4) CloudyPad + Sunshine + Moonlight Ubuntu headless server Virtual display :0 at 1280x720 Proton GE installed

Troubleshooting log shows: "Can't stream monitor [100], it needs to be between [0] and..." "Screencasting with NvFBC" "Couldn't release NvFBC context from current thread" "Codec not supported av1_nvenc"

Already tried: Proton 10, Proton Experimental, Proton GE PROTON_NO_ESYNC, PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI, DISPLAY=:42 Verified game files Changed config.output_name_unix to :0 Forced H.264 codec in Moonlight steam://unlockh264
