I can't reproduce this. If the controller falls asleep before launching I see the gaze pointer. However long pressing the home button on the controller wakes it up and it becomes visible.

@bluemarvin I tried to reproduce the issue using the latest main and it behaved as you described above, maybe I had some preconditions I wasn't aware of. However I did manage to reproduce the issue at startup but with a different outcome. STR:

• Power on the device
• Without putting on the headset send an adb command that opens a webpage(e.g. adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d https://mixedreality.mozilla.org/hello-webxr/ -n org.mozilla.vrbrowser.internal/org.mozilla.vrbrowser.VRBrowserActivity)
• Put on the headset

The controller is not connected and does not connect when the Pico button is pressed, you have to go in settings to connect the controller using the headset buttons.

This only happens when the headset is powered on and an adb command is sent without putting the headset on and paring the controller first. I think this is an edge case and I don’t know how many users will encounter it.
