Game & steam both crash upon attempting to toggle open mic on. DC's every 5-10 minutes otherwise.

First match - #74794013 -Game froze on toggling party open mic on, would not re-launch until I physically unplugged my audio interface. Crashed the game and steam. The game didn't detect my mic for the first game. Was able to replicate the bug again the second time round.

Next game - 74801271 - I had a series of DCs. Unplugging my mic did not help. Sometimes it would crash entirely. Sometimes it only froze for a full minute and booted me back to lobby. Lost ELO and caught a temp ban for "leaving," despite rejoining literally as often as I could.

Swapped to Proton-GE-RTSP as suggested in the discord. Had a totally normal game for an entire easy bot match, but going to wait until tomorrow evening to test further.

The issue happened again in game 77108963.

I rejoined as quickly as I possibly could. Stuck around til the very end. Caught a 2 hour ban anyways. Escelated from a 15 minute ban last time this happened.

This issue seems to be well documented at this point. It is ridiculous that bans are being issued for problems completely outside of my control.
