I just managed to fix this issues after about 2-3 hours of debugging and trying different things.

I'm currently running Windows 11 and had the same issue, I fixed it by:

Downloading Ubuntu WSL (via the Windows Store)
Ran these commnads to download xhost on wsl:

sudo apt install x11-apps -y
sudo apt install x11-xserver-utils -y
sudo apt install qemu-system-gui

Ran the following commands as suggested by: (https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX/issues/517)

export DISPLAY=$(cat /etc/resolv.conf | grep nameserver | awk '{print $2}'):0
xhost +

the first "export" command might not be needed, but I ran it anyway.

then try running the docker command inside on the Ubuntu WSL

docker run -it \
    --device /dev/kvm \
    -p 50922:10022 \
    -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
    -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
    -e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \
    sickcodes/docker-osx:auto

and it worked, finally! Hopefully it stays this way and doesnt stop working again.
