Description
This issue so far has only been present since my move from Pop OS, but games such as Halo Master Chief Collection and Marble it up for example are experiencing stutters or at times game freezes when an os-specific overlay occurs (In the instance of this issue, the volume buttons bring up the volume overlay, which while ubuntu's runs fine, Pop OS' causes a very brief stutter.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue on Pop OS and Ubuntu with Halo Master Chief Collection or Marble It Up, then trigger the volume overlay during gameplay. Compare whether each overlay causes stuttering or freezing; done means the reported overlay-related interruption is resolved or its cause is identified.
