SteamOS got a brand new update today, focusing on a couple of bugs that were causing some issues here and there. The performance overlay will now work with Baldur's Gate 3 as it should, while the issue that could stop it from updating on older SteamOS builds has been fixed. The wake-on-bluetooth feature for the Steam Deck LCD has been temporarily disabled due to it randomly waking up the Deck unprompted.
You can download the update by going to your System Settings on the Steam Deck and checking for an update.
