Unable to use Steam Remote Play from my Steam Deck in Gaming Mode

Whenever I try to stream anything from my main (Linux, running Debian) PC to my Steam Deck running Bazzite, I get an infinite blue spinning "loading" thing and it never properly connects or starts streaming. I did not have this issue when I was on SteamOS.

I am having the same issue, was there ever a resolution to this? Running Ubuntu 24.04 on my main, and just installed Bazzite on my laptop the other day.... Considering going back to ubuntu on the laptop, because nothing seems to be working quite right on Bazzite... -_-

No, I was told in another channel that this was an issue with Wayland and Steam on Bazzite and that it was specifically that Steam has poor Wayland support (which doesn't make a whole lot of sense since SteamOS Game Mode is also Wayland and it works fine there!) and eventually moved back to SteamOS on my Deck. I used Moonlight/Sunshine streaming for a bit as a workaround but I found it highly jank compared to Steam's built in game streaming
