Hello!

I’m running the following code snippet to produce a sphere:

```julia
using GLMakie

fig = Figure()
ax = Axis3(fig[1, 1], aspect=:equal)

mesh!(ax, Sphere(Point3f(0), 1), alpha=0.1)
scatter!(ax,0,0,0, color=:red)

fig

```

with the corresponding output:

As a reference, here is the same output but using CairoMakie:

Does anyone have an idea what might be going on here?

Here is my enviroment

```julia
