Interesting that the left stick up/down chord works for you when the quick access menu is open. For me (also using a steam controller), the volume up/down assignments do not work in any context under gamescope session |

Currently, holding Steam or QAM and pressing left stick up/down adjusts system volume while QAM is visible or while in Steam BPM in a
gamescope-session, but the same chord does not work while a game surface is focused.The core issue is that the forbidden-key reroute logic in
wlserver_handle_key()only applies to real keyboard events. Synthetic media keys generated via Steam Input go throughwlserver_key(), which previously forwarded them to the focused game surface instead of rerouting them to the root server input surface.This PR applies the same forbidden-key reroute path to
wlserver_key(), so synthetic volume keys are handled the same way as physical ones.Mirrors:
