The psplash-drm userland splash screen is running and is then the DRM master, avoiding other DRM applications to access to DRM/KMS. Please stop this psplash-drm application with the command below before running your use case:

 psplash-drm-quit

Note: You may need to enter "export QT_QPA_EGLFS_ALWAYS_SET_MODE=1" before running your Qt application, please refer to the Qt documentation.
