Symptoms

No audio in-game or in menus.
No cutscene videos

Reproduction

Install, start game, no audio.

Other Info

Cutscenes are fixed using @GloriousEggroll's Proton fork (I think due to Media Foundation fixes), and audio works in cutscenes, but game audio itself doesn't work regardless of which Proton version is used.

Research direction

Start by reviewing steam-707030.log and reproducing the report with Proton 5.0-9, noting the separate in-game audio and cutscene-video symptoms. Compare the behavior with the Proton fork mentioned in the report; done means both game audio and cutscene videos work for POSTAL 4: No Regerts.
