Hi - I cannot reproduce this on either my desktop (Fedora Linux 41) or my Steam Deck (same KDE versions as yours). Just checking, is your Steam Deck core OS software fully updated (what you check from within the game mode > Settings page)?

Hi, it is. The only difference is that I am running a beta of the Steam client, but that isn't an OS component of the desktop mode. 

I figured out where the issue is.. downgrading to 24.08.1 didn't resolve it, but deleting all the userdata for the flatpak made those two options work again. Upgraded back to 24.08.3 and it continued to work. Something appears to have been corrupted in the userdata. Not sure what.

Glad it's working now - if something recurs that causes the issue again and could be pinned down to a specific piece of data getting added, feel free to open up a report with that info.

Thanks!
