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
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
showkey
showkey
. The output was as follows:

keycode  29 press
keycode  42 press
keycode  56 press
keycode 125 press
keycode  29 release
keycode  42 release
keycode  56 release
keycode 125 release
keycode  29 press
keycode  42 press
keycode  56 press
keycode 125 press
keycode  29 release
keycode  42 release
keycode  56 release
keycode 125 release


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!
