Bazzite-Deck on Steam Deck all Steam games won't launch.
First off, I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask for help. I looked elsewhere and couldn't find anything useful to my situation.
After switching from Steam OS to Bazzite-Deck (KDE) on my steam deck all my steam games won't launch accept for non-steam games. Non-steam games launch fine through steam using lutris.
I tried both proton and native steam games through gaming and desktop mode. After clicking the play button it switches from play to cancel to stop and goes back to play. This happens with newly installed games and games I copied from my Steam OS install. I want to try and fix this without reinstalling since I encountered this days after setting it up as my main computer.
Things I tried in no particular order:
Clearing the steam directory (I kept steamapps and part of userdata so I could keep my steamgriddb grids and non-steam game collections.)
Updating the OS and Steam
Rebase-ing the OS
Clearing Steam Download Cache
Adding PROTON_LOG=1 to launch options in proton games (There was no output log.)
Checking if the game's executable runs outside of steam (The games that don't need steam to launch worked.)
Verifying the Integrity of game files
Changing proton versions
Switching between native and windows versions of the games
Reinstalling the games
Seeing what comes up in the terminal when launching steam through it
I haven't tried reinstalling steam since I don't know how to do that on ostree (I'm new to it).
