Dota 2 suddenly won't launch

UPDATE: The issue is fixed if I install Steam and Dota 2 through Flatpak, so apparently there is a problem with the libraries on my system. I don't like flatpak and I'd like to know if I can fix issue with the natively install Steam  / Dota from pacman.

Hello.

I'm running Arch with wayland and sway. My graphics card is AMD running with vulkan drivers. This usually runs Dota 2 and Steam without problems.

After running a random `sudo pacman -Syyuu` and receiving an unrelated update to Dota 2 yesterday, the game no longer launches. I've tried:
1. Reinstalling Dota 2, checking game integrity files, starting Dota in safe mode. No success.
2. Downgrading kernels up to 6.3.9. No success.
3. Launching Dota 2 in Xorg with i3. No success.
4. Launching Dota 2 in Gnome. No success.
5. Running Dota 2 on a separate Manjaro machine. Runs fine.

When I launch steam and Dota 2 from terminal I get the messages pasted below. Any help? Thanks!
