[BUG] Error 496 on first start of SteamVR after a boot

Open anxest opened this issue 2 months ago • 3 comments

Describe the bug The first time of the day I start steamVR, I got an error 496 : "Failed to connect to headset display Your headset might not be connected, or your desktop environment might not support VR." But I do have an image in the headset: I can see the loading zone, and the Home "waiting" picture infinitely loading (this is why I register a new bug: not totally sure it's the same as #703; I didn't activated the performance graph either). What I see in the headset is not reflected on the dock VR View though. In this context, If I try to open the dashboard into my headset, the environment will darken, and I'll see the light bar that usually appear under the dashboard, but the dashboard won't display. If I quit SteamVR from the dock on the screen, the "exiting VR" will display for a good 30 seconds before effectively turning off. If I restart SteamVR after this, it will now start "normally" (except the settings will display as I mentioned in #712), letting me play. This issue will happen again after the next fresh start of my computer, or reboot.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Turn on the computer or reboot the computer
  2. Start SteamVR
  3. See error

Expected behavior Starting SteamVR normally, being able to start Home, display the dashboard and starting a game.
