Gamemode breaks Shadow Warrior game

[XakepSDK]

Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

To Reproduce
Steps used to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install Shadow Warrior in steam (appid: 233130)
2. Set launch options to: gamemoderun %command%
3. Launch game
4. Game crashes at some point of loading or may not have sound in game(still sound may present in intro video)

Expected behavior
Game works

System Info (please complete the following information):

• OS and version: [e.g. Ubuntu 18.04] Arch Linux
• GameMode Version [e.g. 1.1 or git sha] d5620e8

Additional context
Game may require you to install (arch package names):

libpulse lib32-libpulse openal lib32-openal alsa-plugins lib32-alsa-plugins

I don't think this is specific to shadow warrier, I'm also on arch, and gamemode recently broke for me, too. It segfaults when I try to open shadow of the tomb raider.

to clarify, shadow of the tomb raider segfaults, not gamemode, though it only segfaults when running under gamemode.

I think you still mean Shadow Warrior.

I can confirm that it happens for me too using gamemoderun, however using
LD_PRELOAD="$LD_PRELOAD:/usr/lib32/libgamemodeauto.so.0" %command%
Does work.

I've the same bug with FORCED: Slightly Better Edition. With gamemoderun %command% the game doesn't start but with LD_PRELOAD="$LD_PRELOAD:/usr/lib32/libgamemodeauto.so.0" %command% it does.

It appears Last Epoch is also affected by this. Starts but without sound with gamemoderun. Works correctly with LD_PRELOAD.
