Black screen desktop 5600xt
I just installed Bazzite on my 3rd device. I have it running on my desktop with a 6800xt and my Ally. I just attempted to install it on my lan PC with a 5600xt. But this time I cannot use desktop mode. Game mode works fine but when I switch to desktop I get a black screen with a mouse cursor. I have tried rebasing to an older version and that did not work. I also rebased to a desktop version and that still gives me a black screen though i do get a plasma shell crash notice.
I used the bazzite-deck image assuming the 5600xt falls under the modern AMD gpu

Trouble with DINPUT/3rd party controller in Playstation mode
I am using my Gamesir T4 Kaleid Pro on my current desktop set up. It works perfectly fine when in xbox/xinput mode. However when I try to enable playstation/dinput the system does not recognize in steam or other apps. I need to use this mode when I want to play with the gyro, as that does not function in xinput unfortunately. I can see it in lsusb:
Bus 001 Device 008: ID 054c:09cc Sony Corp. DualShock 4 [CUH-ZCT2x]
and dmesg shows:
[ 193.683278] playstation 0003:054C:09CC.000A: Failed to retrieve DualShock4 pairing info: -32
[ 193.683282] playstation 0003:054C:09CC.000A: Failed to get MAC address from DualShock4
Not sure where I would go from here, it works fine on my windows drive but not on my Bazzite drive

VRR causing frame limit in gaming mode
I don't think this was an issue before, but I had to reinstall a fresh install on my AMD system. And I just noticed that when I enable VRR in gaming mode via the QAM menu, it starts limiting my frame rate to my max refresh rate

Interesting issue when a monitor/tv is plugged in but turned off
I am currently running my desktop on Bazzite but I believe this issue is more related to underlying Fedora. So I did post it to the Fedora subreddit, but figured I'd drop it here but feel free to delete.
I use my PC in two places: Basement using two monitors (plugged in via DP-1 and DP-2) and also on my TV which is connected using a long HDMI cable. I used to swap my cables in and out but I created a nice bash scripts that uses kscreen-doctor to enable the monitors I want based on where I am playing. But I noticed an issue that I missed before. If the TV is plugged into the HDMI but I turn the TV, I get a blank output on all monitors, even if I disable it first via kscreen-doctor or the display configuration.
My guess is when it gets disabled, it gets a priority of 0. Then when I turn it off, the system is trying to find priority 0 even if disabled and just getting stopped.I am running KDE desktop and Wayland. I would love to be able to leave the TV plugged in and disabled when Im not playing rather then constantly plugging and unplugging the HDMI cable.
Note: There is no issue when using gamescope/bazzite gaming mode. So it is related to the desktop environment.

Possible to switch to desktop from SSH?
I hope this is an okay place to put this. I'm trying to do some home automation stuff because I use my computer both downstairs and upstairs. I have some bash scripts that send commands through kscreen-doctor to enable the right screens depending on where I'm using my computer. Those scripts do not work from gaming mode since a Wayland display isnt created in gaming mode( I can be wrong here).
So I need to figure out how to do one of two things.
A) trigger the switch to desktop via ssh command
B) be able to set kscreen-doctor commands while in gaming mode
