Have had Maui 1 installed since it was launched have tried a few times to start Steam but it just won't start.
I have had this same issue on 2 other Linux installs on the same PC (different distros).
They were all Plasma 5 desktops.
Any ideas what the issue could be?
No other posts here suggest it might be specific to my hardware possibly?
Any error message that appears ?
Maybe also when started via terminal ?
Nothing happens when using the launcher.
Via terminal it either just hangs the terminal or I sometimes get an 'X error' message, whatever that is.

Can you try in terminal and take not of any feedback
/usr/games/steam %U
From another site....
This is what I do anytime I have to do a new install on the computers with Steam.
cd $HOME/.steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
rm libstdc++.so.6
cd $HOME/.steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
rm libstdc++.so.6
This is actually a very well known problem in the Ubuntu and forks communities as is the fix. All the above does is get to the directories in question and delete (remove) the symlink file and then Steam will use the system libraries under the same name.
Take a look at this. Might help
