Big Picture works slowly with the latest version of the Steam client (1726604483)

[cold-distance]

Hi, I recently updated the Steam client and I see that Big Picture works slowly. I'm using Aeon Desktop on a ASUS TUF GAMING B660-PLUS WIFI D4 motherboard with an Intel Core i5-12600K CPU and a standard Radeon RX 7600 dGPU. The iGPU is disabled, I use the Wayland session on GNOME and the Steam version is 1726604483 obtained from the Flatpak launcher.

The opening and the closing work smoothly, but after the interface works slowly with the keyboard and a controller.

I don't know if someone has the same issue.

Same issue. On Radeon as well. Interface works but is extremely slow.

Does this issue happen on native Steam as well? Big Picture Mode is also laggy for me until I launch a game, with Flatpak on Vanilla OS/Debian Sid and the native Fedora and Solus packages on Bazzite and Solus respectively since the update mentioned. I'm running a i5-14500 and a A770 Arc card.

Happens for me both in Flatpak and native Steam (package from OpenSUSE Tumbleweed).

From my side it actually doesn't look like a Flatpak issue but a downstream one.

That appears to be the case since I saw that other people were having the same issue on various distros when I was trying to find a solution, hopefully it can be fixed by Valve soon.
