It is solved without any tweak, weird.

Please re-open this bug. There are days when this bug affects me, and other days when it suddenly starts working again. This bug is not resolved, and its temperamental nature is particularly frustrating.

Right now I'm trying to stream Mordhau to my laptop, and my laptop can only "see" Linux games on the host. However, both computers connect to each other(giving the Remote Play "the other computer is available" notification).

Both computers are running Linux. Streaming works fine from the host to my android phone, just not host to my laptop.

EDIT: Okay, it works again after updating to the Steam beta client. If the problem comes back, I will update this bug again.

So, today it stopped working again on the beta client. I switched back to the stable client, then switched back to the beta client and it allowed me to stream again. I am using exactly the same systems and network setup as before.

Definitely still a bug. @kisak-valve, please re-open.
