Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

(Only tested in Team Fortress 2, not sure if this happens in other games, I will get to checking in other games.) Upon pressing Shift+Tab, the Steam overlay does not open. I have made sure it was activated, tried using a LD_PRELOAD environment variable to try and get it to work, but no luck. The main thing that was expected was for the steam overlay UI to open, simple, but well, as the title of the issue said, that did not happen. I did copy 2 things I thought were noteworthy into a Github Gist, so here's that: https://gist.github.com/GavinFF-SS/2e3a9a9f0f086d98db0dbd940f5fe88c Could be user error instead of an actual issue with steam, but I didn't know where else to put it, so I guess it's going here.
Describe what you expected should happen and what did happen. Please link any large code pastes as a Github Gist

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Install Steam (and steam-native-runtime since I installed that too, error still happens there last time I checked, so didn't think it was noteworthy)
  2. Install Team Fortress 2 (Haven't tried on other games, will get on that, and I also had some custom configs and launch options, so I'll try a stock install as well)
  3. Load the game and try to open the steam overlay.
  4. Reverse Profit (the Steam Overlay doesn't work)

Possibly, but that issue was happening in a game running under Proton, now I'm not sure if there's that much of difference, if I'm told there isn't much of difference, then I'll close the issue.
