Remote Play Issues - 11/13/2025

Is anyone else having an issue with remote play not recognizing their mouse/keyboard inputs? I've also noticed now that I can't even unpair devices in the remote play settings... It's as if anything related to remote play was just functionally destroyed except for actually connecting to the host PC.

Edit: Also noticing in the Remote Play options, the Host PC can see the client as "Status - Available", but the client only sees "Connect". Pressing connect also does nothing on the client. Disabling and Re-enabling the remote play toggle will also make all remote play games unavailable on the client until a steam client restart.

Have the same issue since some days.
Workaround for me is to use the non-beta steam client on the remote side, just checked that and this seems to work.
edit: with remote side i mean the client where i want to control it from.

If Steam Remote Play isn't recognizing guest's Keyboard & Mouse on Windows Host, that's due to use of NVIDIA on a host. Swapping NVIDIA with Intel or AMD as a GPU is a solution for now on.

Yes, I know it's bad because it's a waste of money. So I'm in a same issue like you got.

Secondly, I have a similar issue like you said like that.

.....I think you're describing a different issue. Also, exactly what brought you to the conclusion nvidia is to blame for that?
