Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

First you need to enable CEC between the Deck and TV. Then if you focus on the search bar and press OK on your remote controller, nothing happens. I would expect the search function and OSK to pop up.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Enable CEC
  2. Navigate to the search bar on the top of the Steam Deck UI
  3. Press OK on the TV remote

Result:

Nothing happens

Expected:

The search function and On Screen Keyboard should pop up.
