I can vouch that I'm running into the same issue with a nearly identical error.

I should mention that this problem went away by downloading appimagelauncher by itself from the AUR instead of the appimagelauncher-git package, seems to fix the problem entirely.

@TheGamerCanine that is an older version, I try VCS build to catch this kind of problems before the next release come out

Interestingly, I was able to get it to work with the appimagelauncher AUR package v2.2.0-6
