Yes. That’s how all games work on linux.

With Elden Ring in particular, it didn’t precompile shaders before gameplay and then when it did compile them, it wouldn’t cache them, so it would happen non-stop.

On linux they are cached by VKD3D, eliminating the stutter except when a shader is used the first time. On the deck, Valve will deliver the shaders precompiled with the game download, but this isn’t unusual. They do it for all games.
