Demonstrative video: https://youtu.be/EQm4675c6p8
If I view the official Half-Life Steam Deck config, its behavior in-game is different than when I'm in the main config menu. In the video I try to move the deck while having my thumb on the trackpad, hence the small movement when gyro is not working.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Select the official Half-Life input config on the Deck
  2. View it in the main config menu
  3. Try to use the gyro in game
  4. View the config overview
  5. Try to use the gyro in game

Result:

The behavior of the config differs depending on what I'm viewing

Expected:

The behavior should stay the same
