I've been trying to get steam headless to working for a few days, some games run while others just crash at launch. Notably Hades would crash at launch with error message "no graphics device detected". Issue #168 was helpful as it I was able to get these games to run using PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%.

Ultimately it turn out that the default compatibility tool Proton Hotfix doesn't work for a lot of games. I changed the default toProton 10.0-3 which is currently the latest version. This setting can be found in steam settings > compatability.

Maybe it could be mentioned in the readme that if there are issues launching games check that the default compatibility tool is set to the latest version and not Proton Hotfix.
