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.

    An alternative some people do is to use a smart plug to turn power off/on to the deck’s dock (I’m assuming it’s docked if you’re using a controller).

    There’s a bios setting to wake up the deck whenever it’s plugged in, so cycling power like that will wake up the deck.

      Honestly I’m just going to treat it like my PS2. Just need to put my controller near the deck if I want to use it.

      If valve is working on it (which it looks like they are) it’s a matter of if than when

      Another option is to connect a Steam Controller (via its dongle, not via bluetooth). Pressing the controller steama button wakes it up always.
