Here there. I've been trying to find an answer for a while. Maybe someone can help me here.
Using Virtual Desktop, if I start SteamVR through it, it sets my Meta Quest OpenXR Runtime as SteamVR (App - General). So then starting something using SteamVR (while in Virtual Desktop), like Elite Dangerous, it makes it use SteamVR, which then means the Steam Profiler and other SteamVR apps like FPSVR, OVR Toolkit etc works and shows ingame.
Starting the Meta Quest App, doing link and just running the game from the steam library obviously just runs it with the Quest API and I'd use Oculus Debug Tool with it that way.
But even when I start SteamVR normally (without VD), enable things like the Steam Profiler, FPSVR, OVR Toolkit (and it then shows while in SteamVR home), when I start Elite Dangerous through SteamVR it still defaults back to using the Quest API, meaning none of that SteamVR apps works and shows anymore.
Why is it that when I use Virtual Desktop things (like Elite Dangerous) use SteamVR and all those SteamVR apps just works, but when I use SteamVR 'plainly' through Quest App/Link it does not and reverts back to using the Meta API? And how do I get/force Elite Dangerous to actually use/work with SteamVR just normally without going through Virtual Desktop (It's wireless only) - as it just does by default when using SteamVR on Virtual Desktop?
