Run winecfg via protontricks and set compatibility in lower right to Windows 10
I was getting an error about 'minimum supported version is windows 7' something or other. Forcing Windows 10 in winecfg fixed the issue for me.

I didn't play too long, but was able to start a game and experienced zero issues in the ~30 minutes I had to play after getting it working.
Game works mostly out of the box with a few minor tweaks on latest Aurora update (which borked previous workarounds)

The Aurora update borked previous work-arounds. After a full reinstall (uninstalled game via steam and blew away the prefix), and installing d3dcompiler_47 via protontricks, the game now launches and plays out of the box without any launch params.
Props to marty651 (https://steamcommunity.com/app/1531540/discussions/3/5561388294332782864/?ctp=6) for testing to find the latest working version of Proton-GE.

I didn't have much time to play but tested a few quick scenarios. Game defaulted to medium graphics settings, which I just left alone. Was able to launch a plane and fly around for a bit.
FPS in the VAB was ~110 on average. Runway FPS was down in the mid 40's but playable and no stutters.
Launching a rocket had similar FPS (40's); dropped to 20's for a short time post launch. FPS stabilized at ~50-60 once I got through the atmosphere, and was able to get into a successful orbit with zero issues.
