We do not maintain the Snap package. Per their description:

This is a community-supported modified build of OBS Studio; please file issues on the Snapcrafters GitHub: https://github.com/snapcrafters/obs-studio/issues

We support Ubuntu via Flatpack and our PPA. Please see the Install Instructions wiki page for more information.

It's because Ubuntu22.04 uses Wayland by default. I didn't have to install anything special, just on the sign in screen, pick the settings (down right) and pick Ubuntu on XOrg. Similar to this answer https://askubuntu.com/a/1347522
