Fresh Install of Bazzite doesn't go into Big Screen mode, goes to desktop

Hello

I have installed Bazzite OS on another PC and it worked fine. Since, I had installed on a new PC, and I am having trouble where it doesn’t boot in Big Picture mode at startup, but it just boots to desktop mode (takes absolutely forever too to boot) and when I log in, I can force it to big screen mode within steam, and it works. But if I try the return to big picture mode, it goes to a black screen and it just goes back to desktop.

System:
Intel 12400
32gb DDR5 5600 MT/s ram
AMD RX 6800XT GPU
ASUS Rog Strix B660-I motherboard
750W MSI Gold PSU
1TB NVME

I tried:

ujust setup-decky (didn’t work)
ujust fix-reset-steam
__GL_CONSTANT_FRAME_RATE=3 steam -reset (this didn’t do anything)

out of ideas.

I have secure boot disabled. Dunno if the whole key management thing and secure boot causes issues with this or not.

I just want to say I resolved the issue.

It is embarrassing and I blame lack of sleep and late night working on this but…it turned out that the HDMI was connected to the mobo and not the GPU…
