Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Steam's "Big Picture" mode has no option to take a screenshot - unlike the normal mode, which has the setting under "In-game", the other mode has no such setting for keyboard.
As a workaround, I've tried to set the controller's(dualsense) touchpad to be single-button clicks(Take Screenshot) on both sides - also disabled the touchpad cursor. It still it continued to behave as a touchpad. The clicks didn't register any screenshot.
I'm on ubuntu, running the native steam.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Start Big Picture
  2. Enter a game
  3. Try to screenshot in any way
