Your system information

  • Steam client version (build number or date): 1585009313
  • Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Arch Linux (using Openbox + picom)
  • Opted into Steam client beta?: Yes
  • Have you checked for system updates?: Yes

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Whenever I use the "Minimize Big Picture" option in the Big Picture power menu, the desktop bindings of the Steam Controller are not properly activated. In fact, the Steam Controller acts as if Big Picture is still the front window as I can actually exit Steam using the Steam Controller even while Steam is not visible, as well as hear when I move the cursor and stuff.
Desktop bindings are only ever properly activated if I alt-tab to another window.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Open Steam in Big Picture mode with Steam Controller
  2. Press the "Minimize Big Picture" option in the power menu
  3. Move the joystick around with the Steam Controller and hear the menu sounds

Bumping this, it literally frustrates me, considering the new Big Picture mode, wether its Linux or Windows, completely broken now
