In a previous Topic, I was shown how to install fluidsynth to be able to hear instruments in the game, but since the last deck update it doesn’t work anymore.

This is a steam bug feature and there’s no easy known fix other than downloading the launcher from our website and using the desktop mode on the deck. Or someone fixing how we handle this kind of stuff on the code side.

```
Repro: Linux mint, Arch (well all linux distros that update steam will be effected. As steam native runtimes are now default.)
Needs #4997
## Fix for now is to use standalone launcher. Or flatpak
Damn, ok thanks for the help
