Description:

On the steam linux client, for the desktop scaling effect to work in normal mode, I need to first enter big picture mode and then exit again for it to work correctly.

e.g. when I first start steam, the font and pictures are small and not scaled but once I enter big picture mode and then exit again back to normal mode, then the fonts, UI and pictures are all scaled correctly according to my desktop (which is 125% in my case)
