Can reproduce as well, going into settings will crash steams. With Wayland, kde6 and nvidia propietary drivers 565.77.
Regular client does not have the issue.
FWIW I ran into the same issue after an update the day before yesterday. I can't seem to find any logs for the update but I have the following versions now
I have only experienced the crash when opening the options menu in Dota 2. It happens every single time, and it doesn't just crash Dota 2, it brings down Steam with it. I use the following launch options LD_PRELOAD="" %command% -novid -fullscreen. The LD_PRELOAD bit is required because of this issue: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/11446.
This is the output from coredumpctl which doesn't seem particularly helpful:

This also reproducibly happens in Gunfire Reborn whenever you press the T key (which is "push to talk"):

Pressing the T key crashes the Steam client, not just the game. Happening on both an NVIDIA machine and an AMD machine, on both X11 and Wayland.
Can also confirm that the regular client (non-beta) does not have this issue.
I can confirm that switching off the beta client to No beta chosen fixes the issue with Dota 2 options as well.
Same crash happens when launching Final Fantasy VII Remake in the current beta client. It worked fine 1-2 weeks ago. With the current stable client the game launches normally as well.
Can confirm, after updating my ArchLinux installation - launching Dota2 causing Steam to crash.
Steam Beta - yes
AMD system with open source drivers.
Can confirm here too. Team Fortress 2 crashes when I hit the Push to Talk key.

Steam Deck:
Arch:
This will be fixed in next beta client update.
Should be fixed in latest beta (1735597799)
Can confirm issue is gone for Gunfire Reborn (1735597799).
Continue, please, and persist, @TTimo.
Issue is gone in Monster Hunter World. Thank you @TTimo!
Final Fantasy VII Remake is also no longer crashing now.
Thanks, closing this now.

Happening all the time, sort of random, but it seems opening the dota2 options reproduces the crash for sure.
It seems too to happen while I mistakenly click on my in-game audio voice key/button (I don't have a mic connected/configured, maybe stale out of sync audio conf data?).
