I have tried running 2 games under Proton: Civilization 6 and Terraria. Both had these issues - whenever doing anything resource intensive (generating a Civ 6 map/Terraria world) there are unbearable audio crackles and intense lag. Running Terraria native version has no problems at all. Running Civ 6 native gets me stuck in the initial loading screen but this is probably unrelated to the issue. Whenever I run Civ 6 under Proton I am able to get into the loading screen after pressing "Play Now" but the game crashes in the middle of it. Keep in mind, I was able to run this game in Windows 10. Since this issue persists between multiple games I believe it is related to Proton and not the games.
Proton versions that I've tried: everything from Hotfix to Experimental. Game would only start to render from 6.3-8.
Things that I've tried to fix the issue:
Run it on Proton GE 9-2 and 8-25.
Run it with the following Launch Options: eval $( echo "PROTON_LOG=1 gamemoderun %command%" | sed "s/2KLauncher\/LauncherPatcher.exe'.*/Base\/Binaries\/Win64Steam\/CivilizationVI'/" )
Run the game with lowest possible settings.
Go into /etc/security/limits.conf and add the following line: YourUserName - nice -20. This actually reduced the audio crackles significantly and I was able to get into a game but it was laggy and crashed after a few turns.
I'm running an old Dell XPS 13 from 2018. Recently switched it from Windows 10 to Linux Mint 21.3. Here is the System Information from System Reports:

This actually reduced the audio crackles significantly and I was able to get into a game but it was laggy and crashed after a few turns.I am also attaching the logs that I had before editing /etc/security/limits.conf https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/02u7r5vru89xm7umo9tz3/steam-289070.log?rlkey=329cqy2oh7q91l3lu6bwr44bi&dl=0
Once again, I am registering this as an issue because it occurs in multiple games when using Proton. Any help is appreciated.
