PC [HELP] Flaky launching of game through GOG Galaxy on macOS

ascii7

Sodbuster
Stardew Valley 1.5.4; macOS Big Sur 11.2.3, iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2017, Intel); GOG Galaxy 2.0.35 (19)

I guess it's not too big of a problem, all things considered, but whenever I launch Stardew Valley using GOG Galaxy on my Mac, the game starts to launch then stalls on the developer splash screen. The splash screen appears faded, like the game might not be in the foreground. It stays like this until I click on the screen a couple of times, causing the game to finish loading. Occasionally, other small glitches happen during launch, but none actually stop the game from finally loading. I can launch the game directly from the finder, bypassing Galaxy, with no problems whatsoever. This has been going on since SDV 1.4.5, or earlier.

At some point in the past, I purchased the game through Steam to make it easier to use multiplayer. Launching through Steam has always worked fine.

I saw nothing on GOG's support site about this. Anyone else have this problem? Have you found a solution?
