When using the metal driver in windowed, or SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN, mode I can get the screen to render using the workaround here:

However, passing the SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP flag will result in a blank screen. Doesn't seem to be a workaround for this particular case.

I believe this is fixed as of https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/758d4e1222a7
