Steam stealing keyboard/gamepad inputs when game is on

[kumarukemuri]

I've found this issue here, can confirm it's present as of now (0.50.1-1).

Same thing as OP's: Steam is assigned to workspace 4 on 2nd monitor. After playing a bit it starts to spawn different windows: logout, hardware survey, audio driver / gamepad update on gamepad/keyboard input, making input in actual focused game impossible despite windowrulev2 = noinitialfocus, class:^(steam)$ being set. Tried disabling hardware acceleration -- no effect, both for steam and steam-native

Can confirm, also on newest hyprland version.
Really annoying - I just keep shifting all windows to one garbage workspace and then ending everything when i am done playing but that's far from ideal

I've never had this happen myself, is there an easy repro?

Basically u just launch steam, game and wait for it to happen. Really flaky issue. Like I said, steam and it's daughter frames are assigned to fixed workspace, same goes to games.

Yup, again. Just connected gamepad via bluetooth and started ER Nightreign, hardware info popped up.
