Skip 1s not recognized in the app anymore

in Skip 1s

Hi,

I was able to set up the 1s a couple of months to half a year ago. Now that I wanted to add something to the configuration the app does not recognize the remote. When I plug the remote in I can hear the windows connected sound and a device being added to the device manager, but the status in Skip app remains "ManCave is not connected": Yes, the name of the remote is ManCave. I can see the lowermost grayed out button changing to "connecting" when I insert the cable but that is as far as it gets.

I've tried two different cables and two different PC,s using both the lates beta x.965 and latest nightly x.965.7441.

I'm at a loss here, please assist

Small update: I noticed there is an offline firmware updater and a beta version (4.12.12-beta) of the firmware available here so I tried that. The 1s connects to the updater and I was able to update the firmware of the device it seems. At least the progress bar finished and it says "success".

But still it is not connected in the app :/

Another small update after reading more on the forums:

Yes, I get the SkipDeviceBroker-popup and yes I grant it.

Yes, Steam is installed on both Windows PC's. Running fully updated windows 11

So I seem to be suffering from the Steam issue as described here: 

 

I can workaround the issue by installing the skip app on a PC that has never seen Steam. Seeing that this has been an issue for some nine months now - is there any progress? I'm an open source developer so I can appreciate how difficult things can be, I have actually run into another issue with Steam with their implementation of Steam input, which caused some issues for me (still unresolved even after contacting Valve to try and work something out). But I'd really like to see some developments regarding this issue as it kind of makes the user experience awful. I wouldn't even had known what the issue was unless I researched the issue.
