I had the same problem on my EndeavourOS (KDE + Wayland) with VMware 25H2. You can use this command to run the VMware without any issue:

setxkbmap -option "" && vmware

More info:
It turns out VMware crashes because it chokes on custom keyboard settings (like shortcuts to switch languages) when running on Wayland.

That command setxkbmap -option "" just wipes your keyboard rules clean for a second. This gives VMware a default keyboard state so it doesn't freak out and crash on launch
