When Vulkan drivers are ready maybe the Asahi Linux perhaps also be ready to run some SteamVR apps https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamVR-for-Linux/blob/mast...

Stream Steam VR games to your standalone VR-Headset: ALVR v20.0.0 released
A guess, but SteamVR can't recover from VR applications crashing causing all future ones to not work, might be Home crashing first. Try turning off Home, and restarting.

SteamVR issues on Nobara
From there I went to the SteamVR for Linux Github to see if any bugs related to this were reported.

Need help getting SteamVR working properly
Yes, the beta - SteamVR Beta Update also has the same problem, but with extra bugs like this issue for "Shared IPC Compositor Init Failed (303)". The linux_v1.14 - Older build, for Linux users also has the same problem. The None beta version is the only one I can use, as it doesn't show the "Shared IPC Compositor Init Failed (303)" error.

[Linux] Unable to connect to pipe, but kinda works with sudo
I posted an issue on the SteamVR for Linux Github, but that's basically been abandoned so I'm trying my luck here.

Switching To wayland with Nvidia Drivers.
I actually got a chance to develop against some proprietary API and i don't blame them for not wanting to support proprietary drivers , But there is at least one guy maintaining a fork for nvidia so you can try your luck there.

Introducing River, a Dynamic Tiling Wayland Compositor
The developer of the EGL stream fork of wlroots wants to migrate to the original version, maybe if he will become a maintainer there could be a change in the status quo, or he can maintain a fork with fixes.
-
NVIDIA GBM support eta?
Sway uses wlroots, which is one of I believe 3 wayland libraries (wlroots, smithay and taiwins). It just happens that sway (and most other compositors such as river, hikari, dwl) use wlroots, which doesn't care about nvidia. There is wlroots-eglstreams if you want to try that.
-
Any reviews for Gaming on Wayland with NVIDIA GPU Drivers?
That is not entirely true, there is a fork of wlroots which supports NVIDIA's proprietary driver's EGLStreams implementation, which works fine with Sway and probably other WMs too, see https://github.com/danvd/wlroots-eglstreams.
- It runs sway!
-
Nvidia engineer confirms Sway works with the GBM path of their driver
In the meantime you can use wlroots-eglstreams
-
Nvidia and Sway
Install a fork of wlroots (the library used by Sway to do pretty much everything).
-
Sway not working on my system(Fedora 34)
Also I know about a fork a guy did for wlroots that adds support for egl streams but this is far from ideal, it's a interesting job nonetheless https://github.com/danvd/wlroots-eglstreams
-
Good compositor that support Nvidia's driver?
If your a technical person , you can give wlroots-eglstreams a try (it's a fork of wlroots adding nvidia support).
-
How can I try Wayland with the new NVIDIA 470 drivers?
As of now you can run Sway with wlroots-eglstreams, which is a work-in-progress fork of wlroots, working as drop-in replacement, see https://github.com/danvd/wlroots-eglstreams and https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wlroots-eglstreams-git/.
