**Problem description**
Dota 2 randomly stops outputting Audio. Every time i get into a game or out of it but also randomly mid game.
It's the only game with this issue. I tried using different proton versions.
When I change my sound device to pro Audio, it either starts working again or the entire pc freezes and I need to force a reboot. (Got into low priority now -.-). A couple of weeks ago it sometimes enough to switch from default to my sound device in-game, this doesn't work anymore.
**Does this issue reproduce with native Steam**
Not tested.

Research direction
No project file or test is named. First reproduce the audio loss in Dota 2 on Fedora Kinoite 43 or Fedora KDE 43, then test the issue with native Steam as requested and compare Proton versions and sound-device changes. Done means identifying a reproducible Steam or runtime cause rather than only a local audio recovery step.
