Not Solved RE: crash at startup - SteamOS
I figured it out eventually, after a lot of tests.
It's not related to the GPU, drivers or SteamOS, it's related to the CPU.

I run most of my apps/games inside VMs. I use PCI and USB passthrough, so everything works pretty much exactly like on a barebone machine - no issue there.
Anyway, the only detail relevant here is that I only assigned 1 virtual core to SteamOS, which apparently causes Soma to segfault .. if I assign 2 or more, it works fine.
Even if a single core CPU is below the minimum required specs, that's still pretty bad.
I hope it's a bug which can be easily fixed, because the actual CPU useage is quite good. It would definitely work fine, at least in my scenario.
And even if it didn't, it shouldn't crash.
I run all my games on SteamOS with 1 virtual core and most of them work fine. (and the rest just have performance issues, but they still work)

I really hope we get a patch for this.

Thanks.
