Steam game not launching under xmonad but working fine under kde

If I try to launch Baba Is You through Steam in an xmonad session, an entirely black window goes fullscreen for a few seconds, showing only the mouse cursor at the center of the screen, then it disappears. The Steam process then runs fine, with the game resulting as still running. If I try to terminate it from Steam, nothing happens.

If I do the same in a Plasma session everything works flawlessly.

I tried running a different game (The Binding of Isaac) through Steam in xmonad, and it works perfectly.

Yes, nothing changed.
