Symptoms

The game is freezing and completely crashing to desktop during loading screen, whenever I try to join a map (Team Death Match) or within few minutes. This issue is not occurring with Proton version 8.0.3.The logo animation on the loading screen completely freezes and after around 20-30 seconds the game fully crashes and exits to desktop. Happening on every launch, not some intermittent issue. I'm using steam as flatpak.

Note

The Proton log file generated was HUGE (2.1 GB) and compressing it is not enough to meet Github's 25 MB file upload limit. (The compressed file is still 120 MB). So I did not upload the log file here. Let me know how else you would like me to upload the Proton Log file.

Reproduction

1. Install steam with flatpak (Debian 12, gnome)
2. Install Battlefield V and enable Proton Experimental in compatibility options.
3. Launch game, open Team Deathmatch in Multiplayer.
4. Select a lobby and join.
5. Game starts loading the map, then freezes for 20-30 seconds and then crashes to desktop during the loading screen animation or right after completing the loading of map.
6. Sometimes I can play for a few minutes and then the freeze occurs.
7. Happens every single time without fail.
