QTWebEngineProcess.exe error / EA Play starting error

Start the game from Origin

Connect your Origin account to Steam via web (https://www.ea.com)
Install Origin in the same bottle where you installed Steam. Update: probably outdated, Origin doesn't install with error 20:403, you need to install EA App for Steam instead, then it will prompt you to log in
Open Origin App and Start Mass Effect from its page in your Origin library. Update: don't need to do that, you just run it normally via Steam, and now it opens correctly

Those steps should bypass the faulty launch of EA Play and the game should start as expected in regular conditions.

Delete OpenAL32.dll^[3]
Navigate to /Binaries/Win64/ Rename file OpenAL32.dll to OpenAL32.dll.bak, or alternatively delete it
