Virtual Desktop pass-thru window

Hello. I am using my Quest 3S on a Windows 11 pc to run X-Plane12 flight simulator. I have installed Virtual Desktop and, using VD, have created a pass-thru window to use during x-plane12 usage. I use the pass-thru window to look down at my IPad containing my maps and note-taking software.

Until recently this worked fine. I started my headset, started the Virtual Desktop then started the X-Plane12 software and was able to see the pass-thru window from my cockpit view of the aircraft. However, I am now unable to see the pass-thru window after I start X-Plane12. I can see it before I start X-Plane12 but not after. X-Plane12 seems to be behaving well but no pass-thru.

Do I need to register X-Plane12 with Virtual Desktop to allow one to work with the other.

Can anyone suggest a reason and a possible remedy please?

Thanks

    Additionally, I am using the non-wired air link to my pc.

      Virtual Desktop is not Meta software. You should be asking on the VD Discord support channel.

      What??? You said you were using VD, which has absolutely nothing to do with Meta's AirLink.
