Update: tested with Mesa 22.3.3 and Kernel 6.1.5. This issue only happens if you exit to desktop mode using a mouse (with the gamepad it works fine)

I confirm this behaviour for

It is not limited to ArchLinux only.

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

When leaving new BigPicture mode, there are two windows: the normal Steam client window, and another X window (presumably the one for the previous BigPicture mode), which is minimized. The window is labeled "steamwebhelper", "SP". It cannot be easily closed from the taskbar (right mouse click -> "Close"). Opening this window results in a messed up display with whatever was on the screen at that point in time. The window can only be killed by: pressing Ctrl-Alt-Esc, and then clicking into the window.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Open Steam in desktop mode.
  2. Activate BigPicture mode.
  3. Leave BigPicture mode via STEAM menu (bottom left), and "On/Off"
  4. Observe the two windows, as described above.
