Mixed Reality Link: Controllers are not working, I can only watch the screen
- Jan 06, 2025
Hello! Thanks for the feedback. This is the expected behavior currently. Meta Quest controller as input for mouse/keyboard interactions with the connected PC is not supported. Is there a specific use case you all are aiming for, or general usage?
Having the same issue here, I thought it was broken at first but it seems that this is the actual intended behavior.
Granted this is a beta but it's still extremely bizarre that they haven't implemented this feature yet, because in all the alternatives, including the older Oculus Quest Link app that this is meant to replace, you can control your PC through the Quest by using the controllers and a touch keyboard or connected BT keyboard. It's extremely limiting because this means the only way to use your PC with the Quest is to stand right next to it and use the built-in keyboard/mouse. That limits it from a "walk around and use your desktop anywhere in the house" type of app down to a "oh you can just use your PC the normal way slllliiiiightly easier without removing the headset now." Nice I guess? But not all that useful.
