That’s been my experience. Steam controller, Xbox One controllers, 8bitdo sn30, 8bitdo ultimate mg have all worked fine for me on 3 different laptops, desktop, and steam link.

I have a laptop with an Rx 7600s. There was two games I had to use prime-run because they wanted to use the igpu instead. Other then that haven’t had to. The two games were Verdun and Tannenberg. Isonzo works perfect though.

I have a laptop and a desktop with a GTX 1060 that run fine, and another laptop with a GTX 1050ti that is also great. Running Arch with KDE and Wayland. No problems.

I installed pavucontrol and don’t have any steam inputs or outputs although the streaming audio out does work.

Sweet I’ll read through it. I am using pipewire instead of pulse. Would that effect it at all?

Awesome thank you. I will try it out. The way I first wrote my post I thought it sounded more like I was connecting the headset straight to the laptop.

I might not of explained myself well. The setup is laptop with steam --> Google Chromecast/tv with steam link app. Kids playing on TV with Bluetooth earbuds connected to Chromecast. On Windows you get an audio device called steam streaming microphone that you can select for your audio input. Then it basically passes through the audio input from the device running the steam link app.

I’m on KDE so what would you change in the sound settings? The only option I see is the built in microphone.
