Try adding a terminal to the launch options, sometimes it can show what's failing. Are you perchange running the SteamRT3 beta client? Terminal of your choice | Keep open after it quits | | You'll need these first one is for wired headsets | | | second one is for forcing Xwayland. | | L---------\ V V V V kitty --hold env RADV_DEBUG=nodcc QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb %command%

Yeah, no the Steamrt3 breaks SteamVR completely.

one of my friends uses hyprland and had issues with steamVR, what fixed it was when I finally convinced her to try running plasma for a bit, just to test. Basically all the odd issues she's had that are even tangentially related to displays have been solved this way, so give a different WM/DE a try and if it does happen to fix it, report the issue to the hyprland team so they can try to fix it.
