Playing The Finals on my Fedora KDE install, the game runs wonderfully under proton, however a recent update added verification to the EAC config file so the workaround I found to make Steam Background Recording work now causes the game to close. Is there another workaround for this?

EDIT: Using Gamescope seems to bypass the issue, however now my mouse cursor won't use the correct theme in the window...

[for cursor theme issue]
If you’re on Wayland it’s probably because gamescope is launched as an X11 window
It is possible to launch it in Wayland, don’t know how myself, though. So you’re gonna have to do some research 🤠
