Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Switching away from the workspace containing the Steam client and then switching back to the same workspace freezes the Steam UI. The buttons are still clickable and interactable, but the visuals do not update. Inputs to search bars in the library tab are captured and will update after closing the Steam client and restarting the client window. Below are screenshots of a few examples:

Switching to the store page shows the page, but the bar at the top doesn't update.

Switching to the community tab shows the community tab but the UI doesn't update.

Drop-down menus are still displayed just fine:

Typing "bastion" into the library search box doesn't show anything as the UI is frozen:

But closing and re-opening the Steam client shows the input that is typed when the UI is frozen:

Steps for reproducing this issue:

1. Start the Steam client
2. Switch to another workspace on Linux
3. Switch back to the Steam client
4. The Steam client's UI freezes and doesn't update, even though the buttons are still clickable and interactable, and inputs are still received
