I used to be able to record my screen in a previous version of GNOME (I don't
know exactly which one), but I can't do it any more.
## Steps to reproduce
1. Start your GNOME session.
2. Press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R to start recording what is on your screen.
## Expected result
* A red circle is displayed in the top right corner of the screen when the
recording is in progress.
* Pressing Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R again will stop the recording and the video is
automatically saved in your Videos folder in your home folder, with a file name
that starts with Screencast and includes the date and time it was taken.
## Unexpected result
* No recording indicator is displayed.
* After pressing Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R again and checking the Videos folder, there
is no screencast video saved.
## System information
GNOME 3.32.2

I can't reproduce this problem anymore using this Guix:

I can record the desktop normally again.
I couldn't find any specific commit in Guix's git log mentioning this issue, so
I don't know when it was fixed. It fixed itself magically.
