So today I installed Bazzite for the first time on my computer. I continued with the pre-installed steam package (which was surprisingly not flatpak).

I’m using an Intel cpu and an AMD RX6600. Games are working fine but I’m not able to use the in-game steam overlay. Some games like Apex legends rely on it to complete a sign in process. Apex is saying that I don’t have in-game overlays enabled, when I clearly have it enabled (for the game and within the gernal steam settings) . I tried changing the keys from the default ‘Shift+Tab’ but still no luck.

Does anyone have a solution for this ? Or should I install flatpak steam on Bazzite ?

Edit : It seems that I’m also not able to add steam libraries from other drives, not working with ntfs partitions and btrfs partitions.

Edit 2: I haven’t had the issue after I switched over to Bazzite-arch distrobox container for gaming.

    I wish this notification you’re about to get was a solution but alas it is someone experiencing similar issues with bazzite.

    Also I can’t seem to get the OS to register another audio output from the Nvidia video card, so I can use my AVR for surround sound.

    Have you had any issues with the OS hanging up sometimes after login? It will occasionally get stuck on the splash screen
