[BUG] Intel Arc A380 VAAPI transcoding fails on ls329, works on ls328 #461
With Plex image 1.43.5.11029-6bf8af3f0-ls329, VAAPI initialization fails:
Failed to initialise VAAPI connection: -1 (unknown libva error)
Device creation failed: -5
Failed to set value '/dev/dri/renderD128' for option 'vaapi_device': I/O error
### Expected Behavior
_No response_
### Steps To Reproduce
### Steps to reproduce
1. Run `lscr.io/linuxserver/plex:1.43.5.11029-6bf8af3f0-ls329` on Unraid 7.4.0-rc.1.
2. Pass the GPU device to the container:
```text
/dev/dri:/dev/dri
3. Select the Intel Arc A380 as the Plex hardware transcoding device.
4. Verify that the Arc render node is available:
ls -l /dev/dri/by-path/
The Arc A380 maps to /dev/dri/renderD128.
5. Run this VAAPI smoke test inside the container:
docker exec plex \
"/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex Transcoder" \
-hide_banner -loglevel error \
-vaapi_device /dev/dri/renderD128 \
-f lavfi -i "testsrc2=size=128x128:rate=1" \
-vf "format=nv12,hwupload" \
-c:v h264_vaapi \
-frames:v 1 \
-f null -
6. The test fails with:
Failed to initialise VAAPI connection: -1 (unknown libva error)
Device creation failed: -5
Failed to set value '/dev/dri/renderD128' for option 'vaapi_device': I/O error
7. Roll back the container image to:
1.43.4.10903-e5521bd8c-ls328

It's plex version update. You should report to them as they include all the vaapi drivers in their release package.
