I’m having a strange issue with the OLED Deck. Devices I connect directly to the USB C port don’t seem to work/be recognized. For example, I tried connecting my keyboard using a type C cable directly to the deck and none of the key inputs registered. However, if I connect the same keyboard through a USB C hub that’s connected to the steam deck, I’m able to type as normal. This is the same with flash drives (USB C directly to the steam deck -> flash drive not recognized, USB Drive -> USB Hub -> Steam Deck -> works normally). Is this an issue with my device or is this normal for the steam deck? I had an LCD model previously and I remember being able to directly connect devices to the deck with no issues. I don’t have the model with my anymore to test so I can’t confirm.

For some context these are the devices I’m trying to connect:
Keyboard
Flash Drive
USB C hub

    Having the same issue. I know the port works cause it charges and USB through the dock work fine. But nothing USB works unless it’s docked. I did an SSD Swap from LCD to OLED. Curious if you did the same OP.
