Based on my research, the steam deck lcd should be able to wake when a controller connects with it. Yet when I paired and enabled wake on Bluetooth for any of my controller it doesn’t work or connect.
Am I doing something wrong?
The controller I’ve tested are
Xbox One
Xbox Series X
PS4
PS4 V2
All controller have been updated by their respective systems.


Just be mindful of the xbox controllers as I think it should be very picky about working only with specific versions of the controller, but what version of SteamOS are you on? It’s been on a journey of being enabled and disabled with each update.

These controllers worked on my friends system.
