Symptoms

Game starts, presents a black screen and then either hangs forever or crashes back to SteamVR

Reproduction

1 - Call SteamVR
2 - Once inside SteamVR, call the game
3 - it starts by fading to black then either crashes or hangs forever.

Sending the log for Proton 5.13-4 (no extra variables) and 4.11-13 (no fsync and no esync). If you need the others please say
steam-810500-proton-5.13-4.log
steam-810500-proton-4.11-13-no-fsync-and-esync.zip

Research direction

Start by comparing steam-810500-proton-5.13-4.log with steam-810500-proton-4.11-13-no-fsync-and-esync.zip while reproducing the black-screen failure through SteamVR. Trace the failure far enough to identify why PowerbeatsVR hangs or crashes, then verify that the game reaches a usable state on a supported Proton configuration.
