Strange Bluetooth issues since install
I've had bazzite-deck-nvidia:stable installed on my living room computer and I've been pleased with the moderate performance uplift from Windows. I primarily game on this computer using a Dualsense or Steam Controller connected wirelessly over Bluetooth. Ever since I installed Bazzite though, Bluetooth has some strange problems that make using my controller quite a bit more difficult.
Here's the weird issues I've observed:
- My Dualsense controller works, but takes a long time to connect and the Gyro and Touchpad is extremely laggy.
- My Steam Controller connects instantly, but only works if Steam isn't present. As soon as Steam opens, the controller goes completely unresponsive to any input while Steam doesn't even recognize it.
- Connecting a Bluetooth keyboard is strangely hit or miss, it'll take a long time to connect like the Dualsense and sometimes it loses connection during keystrokes and gets stuck repeating them.
I've tried using a DualShock 4 controller, but that too has the same issues as the Dualsense.
Several restarts too have not seem to change anything, and I've tried to see if anyone else had any similar problems but two cases I found seem to say it magically vanished for them so I'm not entirely sure.
I've done my best to verify that it isn't interference by changing and swapping around my computers antennas, and even using similar devices in its position with the same peripherals and they do not seem to have the same observed issues.
The Bluetooth adapter in my system is an Intel Wireless-AC 9260 Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Adapter.
