Unable to return to gamemode after switching to desktop mode
Only way I can return to game mode is if I reboot. When I log out or click "return to gamemode" It just logs me back into desktop mode. What is happening? this is happening on the official steam deck 512g edition.

Does steam run in desktop mode?
yes
Did you complete the bazzite Portal?
yes
but it doesn't autostart
Well that's incorrect behavior
Is it crashing?
now its running (said it too soon)
Let's see the contents of /etc/sddm.conf.d/steamos.conf
What does the default look like? can't paste it rn
now it did switch back to game mode. I switched before steam launched
Ah okay good
Yea gamemode depends on steam having run
At least once
good to know. is it the same way on steamos?
Yes
ok that's good
