Issue with controllers' system menu button not working after SteamVR update

[virtual_dario]

With the latest SteamVR update, there may be an issue where your controllers no longer can call up the Steam dashboard with the system menu button. We are investigating the issue.

If you do notice issues with the SteamVR Update (1518226924) from Feb. 13th, you can also revert to the temporary SteamVR branch "openvr-inputemulator-temporary” which will address the system button issue. We have identified the underlying cause and are working on a fix.

I had failed to thoroughly test the workaround I previously posted, a better workaround (should you still need the fixes from the latest SteamVR updates this past week) is as follows:

 

{
"jsonid" : "input_profile",
"controller_type": "vive_pro",
"input_bindingui_mode" : "hmd",
"input_bindingui_right" :
{
"image": "{htc}/icons/vive_hmd.png"
},
"input_source" :
{
"/input/system" : {
"type" : "button",
"binding_image_point" : [ 230, 300 ]
},
"/pose/raw" : {
"type" : "pose",
"binding_image_point" : [ 105, 200 ]
}
}
}

 

Once we have an official update that fixes the input button issues for the Pro we'll post it here.
