Can't start Skype flatpak on Fedora 33

I can’t start Skype flatpak on Fedora 33 using Wayland with latest updates. I get the following message:

flatpak run -v com.skype.Client

Running journalctl -f I get:

May 13 17:37:28 computer kernel: skypeforlinux[247455]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f976964ea5e sp 00007f974bffe008 error 4 in libc-2.31.so[7f9769514000+150000]

Would be great to get some help on solving the issue starting Skype. Suggestions like using another software etc. would not be so helpful.

Try this first, Open a terminal an execute:

flatpak update

and execute again, if you obtain the same result There is nothing which we can do here, segfault is a crash problem, please contact the Upstream Project:

@hhlp Thank you very much. I tried flatpak update I didn’t help. I’ve raised the issue on Skype Flathub Github linked here just in case someone comes across the same issue.
