Scarlett 18i20 and Kubuntu 18.04

First, this isn't quite music related, so I'm not asking anything about recording, etc. I think this is more of a driver or compatability issue.
So my setup is the aforementioned Scarlett interface, and it runs through some JBL studio monitors. When i installed Kubuntu months ago, it pretty much worked out the box, I can play music and hear online videos etc. Haven't got into recording on linux yet.
But my problem is gaming. On Steam proton, so many games I want to play work fine, but most of them have no audio. I'm wondering if there's some kind of conflict trying to find Scarlett? In Pulse, none of the games show up in the monitoring. I've tried so many solutions I've seen on google (not scarlett related wise, there is nothing there). Not trying to ask all for some gaming tech support here, but I've asked around many other places and there doesn't seem to be anyone that can figure this out, so I figured I'd ask people who use this type of gear.
