I just bought a new Bluetooth speaker today and had an extra USB to USB-C cable running from the back of my JSAUX dock already, so I plugged in my speaker. I was surprised to find that it was only at 40% when I tried to use it today and when I plugged it in it wouldn’t charge. As soon as I pressed the power button on the deck the speaker started charging. Why is power not passing through the dock when the Steam Deck is asleep? Has anyone else experienced this? Aside from never letting the deck go to sleep or using a dedicated outlet, does anyone have solutions?
