<![CDATA[Music Stops When at Main Menu and Game Freezes When Loading Maps]]>After starting the game, the music plays, but then, after a few seconds, it stops playing. Also, when I try to load a zombie map, the game freezes during the loading screen and starts using a lot of my CPU. I'm on CachyOS.

These are recent bugs. In the past, they didn't happen on my Linux PC.

I can't post a link that leads to more context, because I don't have 1 reputation, but I can say you'll find it in the proton-cachyos GitHub repo by searching for "[Compat]: Plutonium COD WAW Main Menu Music Stops Playing and Game Freezes When Loading Map".

That's issue #236 in that repo.

tried uninstall reinstall?

I tried that, but it didn't work. Still, thanks for offering help.
I figured out a way to fix both bugs I talked about in the first post: change the compatibility tool from proton-cachyos-11.0-20260602 (steam linux runtime) to Proton Experimental.

I'm on version r5328 of Plutonium. That's the latest version as of today. I'm not on Windows. In my first post, I said I'm on CachyOS.

if you didn't then i recommend you uninstall and reinstalling Plutonium Just incase it has missing files
if it still doesn't work

Windows key + R
%Localappdata%Plutonium
find BO2 files on Localappdata and delete them
then uninstall and reinstall
idk if this works but just try it it sometimes works

hope i helped 🙂
(btw tryna get to 3 reputation so i can help more people and upload more stuff so if you want to you can upvote)
