Either disabling Hardware encoding on the host, or disabling HEVC video on the client stops this behavior.
Note: This issue is present on both Beta and Stable versions of Steam.
Steps for reproducing this issue:
Enable HEVC Video on Client in Remote Play settings.
Enable hardware encoding in Remote Play settings on Host.
