[Bazzite] Suddenly, many games are crashing in the menus? (sh.itjust.works)

For the past week or so, it has been near impossible to play the following Steam games: Stalker 2 (UE5), Misery (UE5), Satisfactory (UE5), House Flipper (Unity!). At some point within 20 minutes of playing, opening a menu, map, inventory, or pause screen, etc. will freeze and crash the game. There is no bug report afterword, just a crash to desktop. I have many hours in all of those games, and never had a problem like this before. I play satisfactory and/or stalker daily. I thought it was a UE5 thing but maybe it is a DX12 thing? 2D games work fine. I have tried various proton versions through steam to no avail.

I've seen odd behaviour occasionally on proton. I would usually set the proton version manually starting with experimental and working backwards until I get a version that works
