Proton 5.13-2:
Does not have Audio Component missing error, you can get further but when clicking New Game in the main menu it crashes the game.

Reproduction

Proton-5.9-GE-5-ST/Proton-5.9-GE-8-ST:
Starting the game will instantly show the error message above.

Proton 5.13-2:
Starting the game does not show audio component missing, but clicking single player and new game will freeze the game and then crash without errors, separate logs attached.

Start by reviewing the attached steam-1307890.log files for Proton-5.9-GE-5-ST, Proton-5.9-GE-8-ST, and Proton 5.13-2, comparing the audio-component error with the crash after selecting New Game. Done means identifying a reproducible compatibility cause and confirming that Kingdoms Reborn starts and reaches a new game without the reported failures.
