Describe the bug Steam does not start, but instead gives error message (title)

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Pull the image with docker desktop
  2. run the terminal command that is specified by the container
  3. wait, and use up a good chunk of your internet monthly allowance
  4. See error

Expected behavior Steam installs, runs

Workspaces Version this was run within docker - as specified by the image instructions

Workspaces Installation Method n/a

Client Browser (please complete the following information): n/a

Workspace Server Information (please provide the output of the following commands): n/a

Additional context This is the first time I have tried to use a workspace. I have followed the instructions to the letter, but after waiting for the 1 hour download each time (I'm in Australia) it always fails, and takes an hour to re-download on every attempt. It's awesome.
