For the most part, you don't want AMDVLK installed. If you want to keep it around, you'll have to run games with AMD_VULKAN_ICD=RADV so the games will use RADV. There's also an amdvlk-opt package you can compile and install AMDVLK in a manner where RADV has precedence. I'd recommend using that amdvlk-opt package and only activating AMDVLK for testing reasons when/if RADV isn't working very well for games.
And, no, I don't have AMDVLK installed right now. The way it takes precedence causes nothing but problems and headaches as you've been experiencing. You can tell that I had it installed in the past since my command line above includes AMD_VULKAN_ICD=RADV.
All that said, I wouldn't rule out some VRR setting, a bug, or even your monitor since it isn't officially a Freesync compatible monitor; only G-Sync Ultimate. I'd consider the fact that Freesync even activates to be luck on your part.
