There's a closed pull request on the void-packages repository

steam: update void specific troubleshooting
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/31818

Description:
Void's PAM configuration seems to limit file descriptors per process a little to aggressively leading to game crashes with the "eventfd: Too many open files" diagnostic.
The solution is according to Valve's upstream documentation on Proton's Wine fork to manually raise the limit in
 "/etc/security/limits.conf";
document that specific behavior.
Found by method of elimination by switching from ArchLinux to Void trying to play the same game with near identical configuration of both systems.
For 32bit Games it should also be advisable to pull 32bit audio libraries, preventing for example "This game requires a sound card in order to run" error when starting GTA IV.
