Games crash at start with Vulkan error. I currently only have Path of Exile (not PoE 2) installed. Before today's update it was hit and miss and once every ~5 the game would start. Now it crashes at start 100% of the times with the following error reported in steamwebhelper.log:

If related, I have tried changing Proton to Hotfix. It's set to "Experimental" by default I think.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

1. Launch Path of Exile, likely other games that use Vulkan.
2. Hear the intro audio for a second, with no image, then audio stops and a black screen remains.
3. Kill the process (easy to do with htop, filtering exile and hitting F9).
4. Repeat from step 1.
