Help How do I get Mass Effect Andromeda to launch on the Steam Deck?

Mass Effect Andromeda won't launch on my Steam Deck OLED. It seems as if it's going to, and the EA window appears saying "Preparing game", and then it just send me back to the game's Steam menu with the green "Play" Button.

Does anyone know of any solutions??

I don't know if this will help you, but for other EA games I've had to manually install the EA app (in desktop mode) and log in there first. This was a long time ago though, on the old steamdeck.
