[Steam] Game launches in background

Hi,

I have the following issue with MELE on windows in steam big pictute mode. Once I start the game I can hear the sound of the intro and launcher but I only see the spinning steam icon. If I start it in regular steam mode the steam shows up as expected. So my impression is, that steam does not detect the game because it launches first the ea app and THEN the actual game. Is there a way to start the game directly without launching the ea app? Or any other solution is wellcome to. 

For instance in Jedi Fallen order I managed to solve the problem by adding the following launch command: "H:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Jedi Fallen Order\SwGame\Binaries\Win64\SwGame-Win64-Shipping.exe" %command%

Unfortunatly I could not find a similar solution for MELE.

Thank you

    This is an EA board, nobody her can provide you with a way to circumvent EAs launcher. 🙃

    (And if someone would try it would be deleted.)

    For the problem itself, if I get you right the game is running as it should be it just stays in the background if you launce from big picture, is that right?
    If so you can not just ALT / Tab to the game?
