ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

Sometimes I can’t directly interact with interactive objects (like pitot/engine covers, doors, switches etc.) when activating VR mode, they are not even highlighted when moving over them but I get a haptic feedback when moving over them. I first have to deactivate and reactivate VR mode, then it works again.
Once I had it where I was able to remove the covers and when I got into the cockpit with the controller shortcut, I was not able to interact with switches and buttons, but was able to interact with main controlls like the virtual stick and collective. Really weird.

EDIT: added a video showing the problem below

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)?

sometimes

REPRODUCTION STEPS

Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

  1. load a flight

  2. go into VR

  3. every so often unable to interact with virtual interaction objects like switches and buttons

YOUR SETTINGS

What VR headset and peripherals are you using:

Quest 3 with Virtual Desktop’s VR streaming using VDXR runtime

[PC Only] Are you using Developer Mode or have you made any changes to it?

no

[PC Only] What GPU (Graphics Card) do you use?

RTX5080 with 581.15 driver

[PC Only] What other relevant PC specs can you share?

Win10
64GB ram
9800X3D

MEDIA

I can interact with the virtual stick but not with the throttle or switches ( they don’t even light up blue like the stick):

2

Is this the issue with the mouse sliding off to a second monitor or a new one?

I had one instance on SU4 of the mouse becoming sluggish and not always moving.

3

No, this is about VR controllers not interacting with virtual cockpit buttons, levers etc. Anything you can interact with in the virtual world. Not with mouse or interacting with menus.

4

I still have the issue in 1.6.11.0.

Found that it mostly happens when I enter the pause screen go into settings and back into game (all with VR controllers), after that I sometimes loose the ability to interact with certain virtual things. Even when outside the aircraft in preflight, I was unable to remove the covers or open the door to get in.
I get the rumble feedback in the controller when I hover over the object to interact with, but pressing trigger doesn’t do anything.
