Description
**Game information**
Counter strike global offensive / CS:GO
**Distribution name and version where applicable**
Arch Linux
**Flatpak info**
```
Flatpak 1.15.4
nvidia-535-54-03
default
host
```
**Problem description**
Simply posting `ღ` in the game chat makes the message empty, not even tofu is displayed.
This works both on Windows and on Steam Native.
Other characters are also broken and break player names, I am using this one as an easy test.
**Does this issue reproduce with native Steam**
No, native steam can render the ღ character correctly.

Research direction
Reproduce the empty-chat and broken-player-name behavior for the `ღ` character in CS:GO through the Flatpak on Arch Linux, then compare it with native Steam as described. Done means special characters render instead of producing empty messages or broken names.
