Issue running Steam Play games (DOOM 2016) with native Steam libraries

[btegs]

Using steam-runtime fixes issues: ValveSoftware/Proton#16

Any idea when we get an update to LSI?

I would like to add some details here so we can try to make progress.

What works:

• LSI (Native Runtime for Native Games)

• LSI (Unity fixes work as intended)

• LSI Intercept and Redirect (I guess they work, I don't know how to test this)

The Problem at hand:

Steam added "Steam Play" with a custom wrapper (Proton) which in short enables some Windows based games to run on Linux.

This does not work in Native runtime in most cases. I tried 5 games and 1 out of 5 ran fine with Native runtime. I noticed in the linked thread this affects rolling release distros. Both Arch Based and Solus. (Being the ones that showed up the most)

Current Workaround:

Run game with Native runtime disabled first and hope it works, then switch back to Native runtime and hope it works again.

So, my question is where can we go from here?
