Symptoms

The game is stuck at the loading screen when entering any campaign map or the campaign benchmark at about 95%. It seems the game actually finishes loading, but does not remove the loading screen, as I can hear the sounds of the campaign map and can click and interact with it while the loading screen is still up. The prologue seems to work, probably because it's using a completely separate campaign map.

Reproduction

Open game. Start a new campaign (not prologue) or start the campaign benchmark.

Start by reproducing the campaign-map or campaign-benchmark loading issue with Proton-7.0-3 or Proton Experimental, then inspect the linked Proton log and system information report. Compare the working prologue with the failing campaign map; done would require identifying and validating a specific Proton compatibility cause and confirming that campaign loading completes normally.
