[Solved] Steam Not Launching, Vague Error

When trying to launch steam I get hung on the following

Running Steam on arch rolling 64-bit
STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(0)
libGL error: failed to create drawable
libGL error: failed to create drawable

I currently have the steam native runtime installed from the arch repo.
My current system is running with optimus/bumblebee (though virtuagl is not working with that, on a different note)

dmesg when launching steam does not provide and noticeable errors

I also currently have (lib32)nvidia-utils (lib32)libglvnd-libgl (lib32)-mesa

Any ideas on what might help?

Re: [Solved] Steam Not Launching, Vague Error

I decided to uninstall all of my drivers, xorg, xf86-video, etc and was able to run steam after reinstalling them, I don't know exactly what caused it as I reinstalled the exact same packages.
