Compatibility Report

  • Name of the game with compatibility issues:
  • Steam AppID of the game: 408900

System Information

  • GPU: RX 570 8 GB
  • Driver/LLVM version: Mesa-tkg-git 21
  • Kernel version: 5.10.6-zen
  • Proton version: all versions have been tested

I confirm:

  • [X] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
  • [X] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Symptoms

Audio game is fine, but the game doesn't recognize the microphone, and thus you can't talk to other players in the match. From what I have heard in their discord they use the Windows default communication device as an input device, and proton can't handle this. The communication is fundamental to the game and then at this point it is unenjoyable.

Reproduction

Install game
Start game
Ask players If mic does not work
(Spoiler: it doesn't)
