    If you turn off your deck being online and then turn it on again somewhere with no internet access, sometimes it will not get past the “looking for updates” screen before loading steam. I’ve had that happen more than enough times. Only way to exit from that loop is connecting to internet, but that’s not always possible.

    There’s still some crackling audio on resume from suspend, occasionally. Would love to see that bug ironed out completely.

      I’d recommend trying the “Pause games” decky plugin, it can pause the game process immediately before suspending which fixes most of the audio bugs.

        Ah! I actually meant to do that (saw that on another post), but the second to last Deck update broke Decky Loader’s injection sequence, so I forgot about it in the meantime.

        ETA: the latest Deck update corrected that issue, and Decky works fine, now.

    The weird jumping/flickering animation when pressing play on a game in gaming mode and “Launching game…” appears.

    Doesn’t have any impact on actually launching the games but it’s just annoying.

    Thought it was Decky at first but I’ve tried disabling it and it still does it.

    On the stable channel, it seems like (from comparing notes with friends) a recent update introduced crashes into older games that did not crash previously. In my case, Proton is always involved.

    Sometimes when I go into Desktop Mode, X11 doesn’t have any screens. The deck just sits there with a black screen, until I ssh in and kill plasma

      There was a bug with that, caused both by Decky Recorder and by having Valve’s own game recorder turned on. Uninstalling Decky Recorder and making sure the built in recorder is turned off before entering desktop mode seems to fix it.

    On beta, the two bugs that annoy me the most are both related to docked play.

    • The first one is that pressing home + A on a controller to open the QAM will open it for just a moment before opening the full steam overlay instead. It’s acting like it’s counting it as two home presses.

    • Second one is that every SteamOS update somehow messes up my bluetooth pairing for controllers. The controllers are still listed, but won’t connect. Have to forget them and repair before they’ll work again.

      I have these exact same issues, never heard of someone else experiencing them.

      I’d say the Bluetooth issues, and the inability for me to turn the steam deck on when docked at a distance (without extras) are my biggest pet peeves right now. Otherwise I’m a happy camper.

      The Home + A is annoying, but I usually get it after a few attempts.
