While I have another distro (I’m running the latest Ubuntu) I had the same issue.
Tried a lot of things that were recommended in the gitHub issue but nothing worked for me.
What ultimately fixed it for me is starting steam through the terminal, going into settings and disabling “Enable GPU accelerated rendering in web views” under the interface section. Had no further problems with starting steam from the menu so far, so maybe worth trying it out.
For me it seems to be an issue with the integrated GPU on my main board or something.
