This behavior is currently a limitation of Wayland relating to our color picker code. We are considering alternative solutions, but do not have a timeline.
Reproduction steps:
1. Create a new “3D URP” project
2. Open the “Scenes/SampleScene” Scene
3. Select the “Directional Light” GameObject in the Hierarchy window
4. Click the “eyedropper” icon on the Filter field under Light component in the Inspector window
5. Try to click any color on the screen
Expected result: Selected color is retrieved
Actual result: Selected color is always black
