Log files

Proton log: steam-230410.zip
(Captured during local play, the freeze also ocurred)
Journalctl: journalctl-warframe-freeze-steamlink.txt
(Captured during a remote play session, from launching the game to the moment it froze)

I took a look but can't tell if any of the log messages relate to the freeze.

Symptoms

Game completely freezes after some time (varies between a few seconds and a few minutes). If sound is playing when it freezes, it continues to the end or continues looping if it is infinite. Everyhting else seems irresponsive. Once it freezes it stays frozen until I restart the game.

Reproduction

I first detected this during remote play. I recentely bought this computer and intend to use it as a server so I only tried playing locally once, during which there was no freeze but that may just be because it was a short session. I then encountered the issue multiple times during remote play and today played locally again and confirmed that it also occurs. I have encountered the issue both in Warframe and Jedi Fallen Order. I only tried Fallen Order once (in remote play) and don't have logs, but the behavior was the same. The issue does not seem to be related to any specific in game activity, sometimes it occurs during active gameplay, sometimes it occurs in loading screens or menus. Sometimes I can go for minutes of action gameplay without it ocurring.

Don't know if it is relevant but I'm using a HDMI dummy plug for remote play. I removed it when I tested locally.
