#Steam Frozen?

When I close a game launched through Steam, the Steam client window itself doesn't visually update its state. For example, it might still show the game as "Running" or "Stopping" even if the game process has fully terminated. To see the actual status (like "Play", "Updating", "Processing Vulkan Shaders %", etc. ) or to interact with Steam such as the Play or when switching between games, I have to force a window refresh. Some ways that update the state are by moving the window over or opening a new application, etc.

I am not using a compositor.
I am on x11

Thanks in advance.

Ran into a similar issue where steam says a game is still running after I've closed it
For reference are you closing games with a keyboard shortcut, in game "exit game" button, or clicking stop in steam launcher? Because I only get this issue using keyboard shortcuts on some DEs/WMs

Doesn't matter which way you close it, steam still says it's running?
