Textures not loading and crashes with steam version re4remake

I've installed RE4 from steam and when I launch it I can only see black screen, I hear game sounds when moving mouse.
Steam itself looks fine. I enabled virtual window (size of the screen 2560x1440) with

WINEPREFIX=/home/$USER/$PATHTOSTEAM/compatdata/$APPID/pfx winecfg

I fixed it by installing gstreamer and base, good, bad, ugly plugins (it was suggested by people who made re2remake crack for linux). It works now, but it works really bad:
Sometimes half textures just not loading and I'm walking on the air, sometimes they are completely black. Usually when this happens eventually game crashes. Also it crashes when cut-scenes are starting and when I'm quitting/loading the game. It's like 50% chance when you get cut scene or load a save it crashes.
I lowered everything in graphics settings but it does nothing. I tried switching between 120 fps/60/30 at it looks like it crashes less on 30 on cut scenes, but other issues are still there. Outside of crashes game works perfect and I have nice 120 fps.

Maybe I need to install some other plugins/libraries idk. For re8 someone suggested gst-libav but I have this installed.

Oh, and I'm playing on 2k, but I have r9 5950x, rtx3060, 65Gb ram - I don't think I should have performance issues. I want to know if it's the issue with my hardware/software or with the game (and stop worrying).

Re: Textures not loading and crashes with steam version re4remake

Also it broke my audio and I had to restart it

alsactl init

I guess game turned it off for whatever reason, maybe that's relevant too.

UPD. Probably no one cares, but still: I'm not the only one with this issue

Something with NVIDIA and apps using rtx, vulcan (like re4remake) and something else. Lots of modern games are unplayable because of this bug.
The issue was opened on nov 2022, hope they will do something about it.

Looked at dmesg right after another crash:

and I don't see anything in journalctl. Nvidia log, however, has this line:

Re: Textures not loading and crashes with steam version re4remake

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 2#p2186432 suggests that this is related to a multiscreen setup or an explicitly forced full composition pipeline.
