Freeze/Crash when Soul Orb "seen"

TL;DR: Game freezes/crashes when a soul orb is visible to the camera.

This started with the latest patch. I haven't encountered this issue before, and nobody else seems to have experienced it either.

I'm playing on a 64GB LCD Steam Deck, with Deadlock on a microSD card.

I have tried:
  • Various Proton Versions (Latest, Experimental, Hotfix, Beta)
  • Restarting
  • Shut Down + Restart
  • Validating Game Files
  • Forcing DX11 instead of Vulkan
The freeze occurs when a soul orb is seen by the camera. The game runs perfectly until an orb is in view.
Notably, the orbs function correctly, giving souls as long as the camera does not see them.
Souls from troopers, the urn, and (likely) players all manage to freeze/crash the game.
The performance overlay also freezes.

The game does not resume once frozen.

If anybody could offer support, I would be highly grateful.
