Game won't open on Linux

[jjangbi]

Hi, I'm running Arch linux and have searched around for solutions to this but all I have tried has ultimately failed. I can open up the EU4 launcher and all is well, music, everything is responsive, but when I click play, I can hear the main menu music, eu4 even has a process ID (which when killed stops the music immediately, so it's definitely running and responsive.). I just have no visual indication that anything is happening, literally nothing changes on the screen, the launcher goes away, but nothing else comes up, I'm sat listening to the eu4 menu music whilst looking at the Steam page...

Anybody has this issue before? If so how do I fix it?

First link is a known issues thread. Try there. Second link is the technical support forum. You'll get a lot more traction by posting this there. Also I'm not 100% sure but usually these types of misplaced threads usually get locked so go ahead and repost in the tech support forum.

Maybe you have a second monitor that’s turned off?

No, I assure you I don't
