gamescope 3.16.1 completely breaks wine-proton-ge and wine-proton-experimental in Heroic and Steam

[timjefferies]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Are you using any gamescope patches or a forked version of gamescope?

• The issue occurs on upstream gamescope without any modifications

Current Behavior

after updating to latest package in arch. Games no longer run. They appear to start, but just hang in Heroic. In Steam it starts the game, nothing happens, then quits.

downgrading the package to gamescope-3.15.15 resolves the issue.

Steps To Reproduce

Launch any game in Heroic or Steam.

Please share any logs that are generated as well. At a glance, I'm guessing it's because you're using X11 which is broken with Gamescope in 3.16.1. That specific bug will be fixed when 3.16.2 is tagged and released.
