Commit message

Switch to wayland for ubuntu studio live session

Description of the change

As x11 has been dropped and is no longer on the installation, let's rip this bandaid off and use wayland. The only reason we were using x11 instead of wayland was because testing in virtual machines, at the time, wasn't working with wayland.
