PayPalValve released the latest stable system update with SteamOS 3.7.17 now available bringing bug fixes, but also disabled wake-on-bluetooth for Steam Deck LCD.
The experimental wake-on-bluetooth support for Steam Deck LCD has been repeatedly problematic, being enabled and disabled a few times now. Hopefully Valve can figure out the issues with it soon so all users can benefit from it, as it's especially useful when docking a Steam Deck.
SteamOS 3.7.17 release notes:
General
- Fixed an issue where the performance overlay would sometimes not appear in Baldur's Gate 3.
- Temporarily re-disabled experimental wake-on-bluetooth support for Steam Deck LCD while issues with spurious wake-ups are investigated.
- Fixed an issue that could prevent updating from specific older builds of SteamOS.
- Fixed a bug with the Discover app in desktop mode that could cause update failures in some scenarios.
