Weird power issue with docked Ally
I don't know if this could be an issue with bazzite. But using two different docks and two different Chargers, I noticed a weird issue or when I plug the HDMI into the dock to use it externally it suddenly starts pulling way less Watts than I need. So both charges could plug into the allied directly and pull about 50 - 65 watts. Then when I plug it into the dock and plug in an external monitor, it starts pulling only 35 Watts. It's still using 65 so I end up losing power. And this isn't a case of the doc using some of that power bc I'm checking what's being pulled from the wall. Oddly this doesn't happen if I'm using the dock but no external monitor. I am leaning towards this just being a weird dock compatibility issue, but figured I would ask you just to see if there's maybe a power setting or something that could be going wrong

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
