Problem description

Mumble positional audio doesn't work by default with flatpak steam. To fix this the user can run flatpak override --user --device=shm com.valvesoftware.Steam. I'm not sure what the security considerations are for this but it does solve the issue.

Does this issue reproduce with native Steam

No

This app already has --device=all

Oh well positional audio wasn't working until I did flatpak override --user --device=shm com.valvesoftware.Steam If I entered the container and went to /dev/shm it couldn't see the host: MumbleLink.1000 file, and mumble didn't detect any games running through flatpak steam.
