Does this affect all games or just WL2? Did this work in the past? If so, what changed between when it was working and when it wasn't?

This did not affect all games. I tested three games: Pillars of Eternity and Wasteland 2 failed, but Civilization beyond earth passed. All three of these games are part of a library shared by my brother. I think it had something to do with him being online when I started Steam, but when I did try to run the games he was definitely offline -- his PC was off.

This seems to be the same error that I have on openSUSE - the not working games are using the Unity 3D engine...
see my bug report here: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/3888

  1. Did you try to launch the games from the commandline - without steam?
    You can do this by right clicking on the game entry in steam, selecting properties, then local files, then "browse local files" and then click on the game binary.
    (However, some games require steam to run because of DRM. Those who don´t work for me if I start them solo, but do not work if I start them through steam...)
  2. And - Which graphics driver do you use? If you do not use mesa it is definitely a steam or unity3D bug.

  1. No, I didn't try that.
  2. I'm using a radeon driver.

try Installing the alsa-devel and alsa-devel-32bit packages - this solved the issue for me :)

thank Tuk for the fix, see https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/3888

Hello @slmyers, are you still experiencing this issue on an up to date system?

No, haven't had a problem for some time.
