I have the same problem trying to run the Ventura image on Big Sur.

I resolved this issue on Ubuntu. I completely uninstall Docker on Desktop and removed all docker folders and dependencies and reinstall it as per this link. Then try to run Ventura on newly installed docker. It works like a charm.
