Describe the bug
StamVR crashes quickly after starting a VR game. There are also issues with the left eye in the home environment. The attached screenshot is representative of the problem.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Start Steam VR and view the home environment. This is sufficient to view the left eye issue most of the time.
  2. To cause the crash start what appears to be any game and attempt to play normally. VRChat, Half-life Alyx, and Pistol Whip all exhibit the issue with VRChat crashing the most quickly and consistently.

Expected behavior
Games are expected to function properly with no issues on the left eye. This was the case in the past.

System Information (please complete the following information):

  • Distribution: Arch - Fully Patched
  • SteamVR version: 1.18.7 and 1.19.3 (beta)
  • Steam client version: Jul 20 2021 at 22:25:57
  • Opted into Steam client beta?: Yes
  • Graphics driver version: Nvidia Driver 470.57.02
  • Gist for SteamVR System Information: System Information

Screenshots
Direct mode does not always re-enable without restarting the computer. The above System Information dump was taken from another run.

Additional context
I've also started experience unreliable behavior when starting SteamVR. Direct mode sometimes does not work. A reboot is required to rectify that.

Note: Commenters who are also experiencing this issue are encouraged to include the "System Information" section in their replies.
