Right Controller Trigger and Button Not Working on Meta Quest 3 Home Screen

Hi everyone,

I'm experiencing an issue with my Meta Quest 3's right controller. The trigger and A button are not functioning properly on the Meta OS home screen. Specifically:

  • I am unable to select or interact with items on the home screen using these buttons.
  • Interestingly, when I press the trigger or A button, I can see the button press reflected in the avatar model's hand press animations, but there is no actual interaction with the UI.
  • In applications like Virtual Desktop, both buttons work perfectly fine without any issues.

I have tried restarting the headset and ensuring the controller's battery is 100%, but the problem persists.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue or knows a fix for this? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

I’m having the same problem, and it sucks as I’m right-handed. Also, the right controller’s battery keeps draining.

@Hamakaze  @HairBear143  perhaps a factory reset of the headset will bring back full functionality of your headsets.
