Pegasus does not launch after Android emulator (FPSE 64) exits

The issue

I launch a Playstation game through Pegasus. FPSE64 opens, i play the game, i quit the game and i come back to the drawer.

Expected : come back to Pegasus.

Attached a logcat doing these steps :

1. open Pegasus
2. launch game (Pepsi Man)
3. quit game, go back to the drawer
4. reopen manually Pegasus log.txt

There have been some changes recently with how apps are launched; could you try the latest Pegasus release if this still happens? If it still does, could you describe how exactly you leave the game (ie. is there some in-app quit menu)? Perhaps the Android system closes Pegasus to save memory?

Hi,

Still the same issue. But i just tested with another frontend (Arc Browser) and the behavior is the same. It might be an issue with the app.

There is an in-app "Quit game" / Quitter le jeu.

Tested with Dig frontend, "Quit game" goes back correctly to the frontend.

I has similar problem on my poco f1, but i was running retroarch with arcade emulator. rom is pixel experience.

One thing I later realized, if I enter another emulator before like redream is exit, enter retroarch and exit and the "focus" works in the pegasus frontend
