Steam downloads failing

I’m running dual boot Win 11 and Bazzite on my ROG Ally. I’ve created a shared partition for games which is visible and accessible in both Win 11 and Bazzite. I can run games from both OS from this partition.

The path to the partition is /var/mnt/games

What I can’t do is install a game from Bazzite to this location. It get a simple “Failed” from Steam.

Is there any logging available in Steam to indicate what the issue is? I’m a few weeks into learning Linux and I’ve tried running [ls -l in var/mnt/games] in terminal and it looks like I’m the owner of the folder and with RW permissions. I’m still learning so thought this was a good place to start.
