No Windows Games Start Up (Manjaro)

[Rain Shinotsu]

I recently added my Windows game library to my Steam Linux installation in order to play more games from my library on Linux, but I've been having trouble getting any of the non-native games to load.

So far, I have tried Paperball, Puyo Puyo Tetris 2, and Scribblenauts Unlimited. For each of them, the "Play" button becomes "Cancel", then "Stop", but before anything opens, it turns back to "Play".

I have tried opening steam-runtime from my task manager ("taskbar") and from terminal (steam-native does not seem to exist, as the command does nothing), and no Windows games will load either way.

Potentially useful hardware specs:
M/B: ASUS Tuf Gaming X570-Plus (Wi-Fi)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6800
RAM: 32 GB (2x16) DDR4-3600 CL16
Storage: (OS) Samsung MZVLW512HMJP-000H1; (Games) Samsung 870 QVO

Potentially useful software specs:
OS: Manjaro Linux (Ornara 21.0.2)
Kernel: 5.11.14-1-MANJARO
Graphics Driver: Mesa 21.0.2
DE: KDE Plasma 5.21.4 (X11)
Steam version: latest Beta (as of 2021-04-20; also tried stable)
Proton version: latest Experimental (as of 2021-04-20; also tried 6.3-2)

Log (for PPT2, starting from clicking "Play"): https://pastebin.com/RBsviHWe

If more info is needed, I would be happy to provide it.

Thanks for sharing the link. Unfortunately, after following the instructions, it still doesn't seem to work. However, it does take a bit longer now, which might mean progress.

Here's the new log, also for PPT2 and ranging from game startup to game exit: https://pastebin.com/DhqS5tSx
