Research direction

Start by reproducing Doom 2016 (379720) through Steam Play on Ubuntu 18.04 with an Nvidia 1080 and driver 396.54, noting the black screen, normal sound, working overlay, and reported FPS. Done means identifying and validating a Proton change that resolves the black screen without losing the reported working behavior.

Description

Game compatibility

I am trying Steam Play out of the box.

Ubuntu 18.04 (up to date).
Nvidia 1080 (no intel) -> Latest drivers (396.54)
Vulkan (1.1.73) (no vulkan-intel)
Side note, opengl and vulkan games work fine (e.g. MadMax).
Steam Client Beta: 1535062307 (up to date).

I installed Doom through Library/Steam Play
The game starts with a Black Screen and normal sound.
Steam Overlay works. I can activate and use it with SHIFT-TAB just fine.
The FPS indicators varies up to 180, so it is working/rendering.
