Your system information

Steam client version (build number or date): Jul 17 2017
Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Debian
Opted into Steam client beta?: [Yes/No] No
Have you checked for system updates?: [Yes/No] No

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

When starting a game steam also launches a corresponding gameoverlayui process. Taking screenshots makes it hang (after 1-5 screenshots), and I can't take a new screenshot until I kill it manually. Starting another game launches a new gameoverlayui, and the in-game overlay works, but taking screenshot doesn't.

Mmmmkay, but in my case it doesn't crash the game.
