    I am trying to get the XR Device Simulator to work to develop a VR app without a headset. I can move around the camera using the right mouse button, but I can't move the hands. I tried changing the inputs, but that didn't work. I tried using the toggle button but that didn't work.
    I am just using the standard XR Rig, no modifications. I even tried running the sample project on GitHub, but that didn't work, so the only thing that could be wrong is the system.
    Can anybody help me out here?

    Hi @kentg1, sorry to hear that you're having this issue. It could be a conflict with connected controllers/devices, the XR Plug-in Management (Project Settings -> XR Plug-in Management) and/or the Plug-in Providers should be disabled to avoid this conflict.

    Try to move your right controller by holding space in Play mode, here it's a list of commands for the XR Device Simulator.

    Can you send us your Unity and XR Interaction Toolkit version, so we can test here to reproduce the issue.

    I found out that I didn't import Starter Assets from XR Interaction Toolkit.
    Just follow the video at the timestamp :

    OK TIMESTAMP DOESNT WORK. It's at the 11 minute mark

    Hey, is this still a known issue? I'm working with several people who are able to move around using the Device Simulator, but unable to move the controllers. They're all on Macs, using:
    Unity 2022.3.11f1
    OpenXR v1.8.2
    Unity OpenXR Meta v1.0.0
    XR Interaction Toolkit v2.5.2

    They don't have headsets plugged in, so I doubt it's a conflict there. Any insight you can share?
