7/15 update affected keyboard behavior?
Hi all,
I am using Bazzite 42.20250715 in GNOME Stable.
I've been using a QMK keyboard (connection via USB) for the last few months that utilizes a HYPR keypress for a handful of GNOME and nvim shortcuts (HYPR presses gui, alt, ctrl, and shift simultaneously).
Up until until the 7/15/2025 Bazzite update, that key worked for me as expected. For instance, pressing HYPR+C would center a window in the current workspace, HYPR+Y in nvim would highlight and yank code from one blank line to the next blank line, etc. These are all shortcuts I created myself using the tiling manager extension and my nvim config file.
But this morning, all of my HYPR key presses go unrecognized, no matter which program or shortcut I am trying to use. I checked that the key is functioning mechanically and was able to confirm it because it controls my volume on a different layer.
Pressing all four keys independently (holding down the gui, alt, ctrl, and shift keys instead of using hyper) works, so I am wondering if there is some kind of conflict in the 7/15 update that might be affecting the way keyboard keycodes are registered? FWIW, the
Also maybe relevant: I was able to confirm that, at least in bash, the HYPR key is sending four indepedent keypresses by using
Is there anything I need to do with Bazzite to make HYPR work again? I checked with the QMK people and they seemed to think my board was setup correctly. Since it was working last night before the update, my assumption is the update to 7/15 from 7/12 is somehow responsible. Thanks for your help!

meh key still works just fine (that's alt+ctrl+shift). Maybe something is going on with the way the gui key is handled?Also maybe relevant: I was able to confirm that, at least in bash, the HYPR key is sending four indepedent keypresses by using
