Unable to install any game (Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.)

[khoavo-hatch]

I cannot install any game on Ubuntu 21.10 (I've tried Control, Assassin's Creed and Alan Wake)

Here's the log when it crashes

Lutris version

$ apt list --installed lutris

lutris/impish,impish,now 0.5.9.1~ubuntu21.10.1 all [installed]

I'm a total noob so maybe I'm missing something obvious, would appreciate any pointers to how to troubleshoot this.

I have the same issue on my nvidia hybrid graphics laptop with other games, even simple desktop apps.

Looks like it's got something to do with nvidia, I had the same issue, uninstalling nvidia drivers and using intel integrated at least avoids the crash. On further investigation it seems that the crash is related to the Vulkan ICD Loader, switching to Intel ICD fixes the issue when nvidia is available as well.
