Apple Vision Pro environments unavailable

I've had an issue on two separate occasions with the Apple Vision Pro and the environments. Tuesday, when using environments, instead of pulling up Mt. Hood or any other location, it was just a black screen. I restarted the headset and they started to work normally again. Then the very next day, trying to activate environments simply showed nothing. The environment dial would show up with a greyed out X over it, seemingly indicating that environments were unavailable. I'm hopeful this can be resolved with future software updates.

This happens when you’re in Spatial apps that require you to have content anchored in your space, say Super Fruit Ninja.

If you didn’t have any Spatial apps open, then it may just be a software bug. You may want to try Force resetting your AVP, this can be done by holding down the two top buttons for about 10 seconds.

Additionally, if you aren’t on the latest software, you should update your device.

I would like to update this by saying this issue is still persistent through VisionOS 1.0.3. I have ensured all spatial apps and/or games are closed. I can also confirm that the only way I've been able to fix this, still, is with a hard reboot. Hopeful this will be addressed in the 1.1 public release.

You may also want to try factory resetting your Apple vision, Pro, and setting it up again (consider not using your iCloud back up as this can transfer issues over)
