Yes, that happened to me about a month ago, both with buster and bullseye (arm64, encrypted disk). I selected the MATE desktop environment, which I prefer to the default GNOME 3 one.

I tried looking at the system log (with `journalctl`) and at several other log files under `/var/log`, but to no avail.

I just tried right now with the default GNOME 3 desktop environment and I do not experience that issue anymore (tried both with buster and bullseye, arm64 and encrypted disk).
