GPU meter is always zero on a double GPU headed PC
A problem description: The GPU meter added in my htop layout always stays zeroed. Although at the same time nvtop shows existing real load on the GPU.
Expected behavior: the htop's GPU counter show real % load.
Extra information:
- I've checked this behavior on three different PCs. On two different one-GPU-equipped PCs (Intel and AMD) everything works as expected and only on a dual-GPU setup (Intel + NVIDIA) I have experienced the unexpected behavior.

I would really appreciate any help on this. Thank you in advance!
Just as an extra idea I guess my htop is trying to read my iGPU load, which isn't in use instead of discrete GPU which is really in use.. Although I can't find an option to set this up manually.
I am also facing the same issue.
I have an nvidia and amd integrated gpu. The nvidia gpu usage is not showing in htop.
Htop - cfb561f
OS - Arch linux
I have a NVIDIA discrete GPU in my desktop which does not have an iGPU, and htop is failing to show GPU usage. Potentially an issue with NVIDIA rather than with the dual-GPU setup?
