Now that https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/issues/4201 is fixed the flicker issue is back.

When you replay a film in Source Filmmaker the viewport will flicker black including HUD and all. This does not happen with wined3d.
To reproduce open Source Filmmaker via Proton Bleeding Edge and start a session with a film. I usually just open Meet The Heavy. When you pres play you should notice that the film viewport will flicker.

FWIW adding -noqt -usevgui to SFM launch options fixes the flickering for me, but also makes the viewport navigation feel sluggish.
