Describe the bug

When closing apps through Command + Q, the app often hangs or freezes, requiring the user to use the Force Quit menu to close the game.

Steps to reproduce

I normally use Honkai: Star Rail with PlayCover, so I'm not sure if this affects other games.

May not be reproducible at first, it seems to only freeze during around half the time I close the app. The chances are increased if I've been using the app for over 5-10 minutes.

Version Info: macOS Sonoma / PlayCover Nightly (514) - (however, this also occurs on the 3.0.0 Beta version)

Expected behaviour

Normally, clicking the red button in the top left or pressing Command + Q should close the application.

Crash log

No response

What version of PlayCover are you using?

Nightly/beta

What version of macOS are you using?

Sonoma (macOS 14)
