The Steam Deck compatibility notes for the game specifically say that it isn’t good at handling multiple controllers:

This game does not default to external Bluetooth/USB controllers on Deck, and may require manually switching the active controller via the Quick Access Menu

I think it is likely that this problem comes from the game, not a problem with streaming sending the inputs. You can try testing this in another game with more flexible controller support to narrow it down.

It should be pretty plug and play, but it looks like some controller settings can mess up the deck’s input.
Trying going into the game properties and setting Steam Input to disabled in the controller tab, then restarting the game. Also worth checking if it’s happeneing with all your games or just E33 in particular.

Should just be the remote machine.

Sunshine is what I use, too. You can set it up to adapt your monitor resolution to the deck upon connecting, and set it back to normal upon disconnect. Very handy.

You definitely can turn off steaminput with proton. Per-game, too.

Ah. I guess steam uses it to emulate a gamepad to transmit the controller inputs over.

Its supposed to but doesnt.

It’s pretty janky in my experience. I use sunshine, works a lot better.

Sunshine is the way. Steam Remote “works”… technically… But Sunshine/Moonlight is way better.
