This just seems odd to me. I know it’s a competitive game, and most folks will be playing with a mouse and keyboard, but it feels weird for Valve to put out a brand new game (built from scratch, at that) and not plan for this.

No audio is not a Steam Deck only issue, its broken for a lot of people on Linux.

I don't know what the deck uses but -sdlaudiodriver pipewire in launch options fixed it for me.

The rest of it sounds like a nightmare tho.

Interesting, I guess right now they only support pulseaudio.

I have seen some people reporting non working audio with Pulseaudio as well, but I haven't tried myself or looked more into it after I found what fixes it for me.
