Haha yeah, always good to list out as many possibly relevant variables as you can with a bug report =P

And I’ve been running Bazzite on my Deck for a while now, but I also just don’t use any BT thingies.

But uh ok, so… I am not aware of any significant differences in terms of hardware between the various models of Deck that … would factor in here… the OLED models basically just have a slightly different shell / internal form factor, obviously the OLED screen, and then a bigger battery.

So… given that we’ve got other reports here, of the same thing, … either all of you are getting uh BT linking attempts from neighbors…

… Or, probably, if you’re all on stock SteamOS… its probably just bugged on Steam’s end.

Meaning that unfortunately unless you want to go to the SteamOS github, identify the actual problem with the BT driver, and then fix it… yeah, I dunno lol.

Maybe there is a way to go into Desktop mode, there’s a setting to specifically disable ‘wake on BT activity’?

I don’t know.

The… whole problem with BT in general is that it is a security nightmare to try to implement on linux… to keep everything in the OS secure and also working at the same time.

Like, as best I can tell, Valve would basically have to do I think Wayland’s job for them and solve what has been a long running headache/struggle session for just linux in general… it gets insanely esoteric and complicated when you try to dive into what exactly is even going wrong, who should be responsible to fix it, and then a lot of devs just say no, its not fixable.
