    Hello, hoping to get some insight into what's going on with my game on the Steam Deck. We're running a native Linux build built with Unity 2019.4.17f1 and all features seem to be working correctly aside from the fact that our game is being spammed with "down" navigation events.

    I've disabled all game input processing as well as disabled all buttons in the Steam controller configuration to rule out a stuck button, but yet our UI just continually navigates down.

    The only fix I've found is to disable the SendNavigationEvents property of our EventSystem. Something deep in the black box of Unity input processing doesn't seem to play nicely with the Steam Deck and I'm struggling to figure out the cause.

    I know not a lot of Decks have been sent out yet but I'm hoping somebody from Unity has done some compatibility testing already and can point me in the right direction. Thanks -
