            Bug ID: 218886
           Summary: Steam is removing Steamdeck Controller on launch
                    (usbhid)
           Product: Drivers
           Version: 2.5
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: USB
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
        Regression: No

After booting there are 4 usbhid devices:

crw-rw-rw-+ 1 root root 241, 0 24. Mai 22:27 /dev/hidraw0 crw-rw-rw-+ 1 root root 241, 1 24. Mai 22:27 /dev/hidraw1 crw-rw-rw-+ 1 root root 241, 2 24. Mai 22:27 /dev/hidraw2 crw-rw-rw-+ 1 root root 241, 3 24. Mai 18:03 /dev/hidraw3

I found out that hidraw2 is the Steam Controller that Steam detects. For some reason after starting Steam Steam removes hidraw2 (right after Steam startup window shows up).
I can fix it using echo "3-3:1.2" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usbhid/bind.

Of course this doesn't happen on original SteamOS.

I suspect usbhid has directly or indirectly something to do with it. Also checked Steam logs and dmesg.

This is what i get on Steam launch on Steamdeck OLED (same on LED).

Oh and kernel versions do not seem to matter...
I run Valves kernel 6.1 from jupiter repo. Also tried 6.5 and the current one from Arch repo.
