Description
System Information
GPU: Steam Deck
Driver/LLVM version: 4.6 Mesa 22.2.0
Kernel version: 5.13.0-valve36-1-neptune
Proton version: 7.0-5
Reproduction
the issue happens with microsoft games (aoe 2 DE, aoe 4, sea of thieves...)
those games require xbox sign to access some features,
normally you would have a window that pop-up where you would login using your account but with the steam deck you get a white window instead.
for aoe 2 it's kinda strange because i get the first screen working normally
but when i click on SIGN IN
also tried with proton-GE same issues.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the white Xbox sign-in window in Age of Empires 2 DE, Age of Empires 4, or Sea of Thieves on Steam Deck with Proton 7.0-5, then compare the result with Proton-GE. Done means the sign-in window renders correctly and account authentication works for the affected games.
