Bazzite verifying install/black screen after game exit

[killakanl0rd]

Describe the bug

When exiting Telltale's The Walking Dead Definitive Edition via the in-game menu, the screen goes black for a longer-than-normal period, Bazzite verifies its installation, and then Steam OS restarts. I believe the device is crashing/rebooting upon game exit. Sometimes upon exit, the black screen stays and a hard reset is required.

What did you expect to happen?

The game to close and to be returned to the Steam OS menu. No other game on the device has this black screen issue, they exit normally to the Steam OS menu. The only other time the Bazzite installation gets verified is after a boot into Windows, and then a return to Linux/Bazzite.

Hardware

ASUS ROG Ally X, dual-booted with Bazzite/Windows 11.

I have the Rog Ally Z1 Extreme and I'm currently playing through Telltale's The Walking Dead Definitive Edition too and I'm not experiencing your issue. What version of Proton are you using though? I'm using GE-Proton-9-12. Also have you disabled Steam's Game Recording? That sometimes causes issues.

However, considering that your other games work correctly, it's very likely that this is not a Bazzite specific issue.

Thanks for your reply! I am having this issue with Game Recording disabled. I have tried running without compatibility, with compatibility with GE-Proton9-20, and Proton Experimental. I have also tried disabling the Steam Overlay.

I am able to exit normally using the Steam button menu, and selecting Exit Game, which returns me to Steam OS totally fine. However any form of exit from the in-game menus causes the Bazzite install verification issue.

Yeah it is a strange one...
