I have had a similar issue (not identical though). I had to remove both steam and my Nvidia drivers. Rebooted.
I then reinstalled my Nvidia drivers with sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall, rebooted, and then installed Steam.

Thanks, that worked! I did "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa; sudo apt remove nvidia-*" to remove the driver, then "sudo apt install nvidia-driver-418" to install it (which updated me to the 418 driver).
