Does anyone know what could be causing my Deck to wake up? I’m thinking it has to do with the new feature to wake on Bluetooth activation, but the controllers are not even on when this happens.

    Go to bluetooth settings, and tap on each of your paired devices. There is a (probably brand new) setting to Allow this device to wake the deck.

    Yep, same happening here. Turning Bluetooth completely off seems to help, which is ok since I use the 2.4 dongle for my controller, but it still kinda sux

    Is it happening in all games? There was a similar bug in the past, but it primarily affected non-steam games for whatever reason.

    I had this issue and it was because I changed something in the bios for the power states. Maybe pstate switching or something.

    This is happening with a friend’s Early LCD Model Deck too. It’s definitely something to do with Bluetooth because when he has Bluetooth off nothing happens but when it’s on even if none of his controllers are on, the Deck wakes itself.

    Could you give more detail?

    I am…assuming you are running the stock SteamOS?

    I would say wake on BT activation is a good guess…

    If your BT controllers are not on though… could maybe be someone else nearby trying to connect to your Steam Deck with their own BT?

    Or … maybe its… something else entirely causing it to wake?

      Good point, I should have added that info up front.

      I’m running stock SteamOS, and it’s an early LCD model. It even happens when I’m home alone.
