Im trying to build an electron app i kiosk mode on a Raspberry Pi5 and I want to wake connected screen if needed. Im trying to do this with echo "on 0" | cec-client -s -d 1 but without any luck. It turns out that a cec-client scan in container gives me * failed to open vchiq instance. In Balena host I can see that vchiq and cec* in /dev/ is missing. What could be the problem here? Does BalenaOS missing this support on Raspberry Pi 5?

@jaxwtf are you using docker-compose to deploy the project?
If you do, could you please share it?
If not, could you please use it, move the LABEL part from the Dockerfile in there, and share the docker-compose with us here, so we can try to reproduce?
Another thing, for Raspberry Pi 5 I can only select BalenaOS 5.3.22 but for Raspberry Pi 4 its 6.1.24. Is it a problem that I have BalenaOS 6 on a Raspberry Pi 5?
