All I ask is CAN THE DOCK FUCKING WORKS?
I have the official deck dock and when you put the deck to sleep and wake up you can face :
I haven't noticed most of those issues since upgrading to SteamOS 3.5, so I think fixes are incoming.
Unfortunately 3.5 has an equally annoying bug where the steam overlay and QAM overlay sometimes stop opening when a Bluetooth controller is connected. Swapping games or changing QAM settings will require turning the extra controller off and using the deck's built in controls instead. Not sure if USB controllers are effected, I should probably check those next.
I don't have the official dock, but I do have the Jsaux dock. Maybe I'm lucky but I haven't had any of these issues, the worst I had was audio came out of the Deck rather than TV after I put the deck to sleep, docked, then woke it. But a quick setting change and back to normal.
omg I also have the official dock and it has also given me tons of problems. I'm glad to not be alone.
