Cannot run gz sim. It is aborted due to Ogre::RenderingAPIException

I have ros jazzy and gazebo sim8 on Ubuntu 24.04, powered by parallels desktop 20 on Macbook with the M series chip. The following issue can be avoided if it is forced to software rendering. That is if export LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 is set so I would assume it is a GPU related issue.

user:~/.gazebo/models/gazebo_models$ gz sim

Any ideas how to solve this issue?

Read through ~/.gz/rendering/ogre.log (or ogre2.log). You should get some hints there.
