We are currently investigating multiple other issues on LIVE including Nvidia Smooth Motion causing black screens while running Vulkan renderer. Disabling Vulkan for directx or disabling smooth motion is a workaround for now while we investigate the issue.

Too bad workaround for "smurf mode" on Linux + Vulkan combo didn't make it in. I'll keep waiting, I guess.

Yeah, for now using Experimental Wine Wayland has fixed this for me.

I also had to make sure to add the --in-process-GPU argument to fix my launcher from being all white.

And then there was the user.cfg override by going with 2 pixels less on the height to fix the occasional black screen issue with any full screen effects.

None of the workarounds work for me so all I can do is wait and hope it'll make it into the next patch, unfortunately.

Edit: Never mind, I can't play properly at all. For some reason game won't let me move my camera normally and limits the mouse movement to a little more than if I were using freelook. This doesn't bode well.
