Hi, I wanted to leave feedback:
Between the native Linux versions and the Proton version, the sound has a higher volume through the Proton, in all the games I've played so far. The volume is twice as much on the Proton.
I wanted to leave feedback here, I believe it is on the Steam client. I would like to see the volume double in native Linux versions as well.

Thank you very much in advance

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Change the system's power profile to Performance, open the game FlatOut 2 via Proton, and notice that the volume is good, and loud.
  2. Open a native Linux game, like Horizon Chase turbo. The volume needs to be double.
  3. Force any native Linux game to use the latest stable Proton, and see the difference.

Hello @Leandro599, the Steam client doesn't control the volume of individual applications or how they connect to your audio hardware.
