Hey,

I’d like to provide a bit more technical detail about a hotkey issue that affects dual-window mode in Azahar, as discussed in GitHub issues #1716 (Windows) and #1046 (Linux / Steam Deck).

Affected platforms

  • Windows 11
  • Linux / Steam Deck (Desktop Mode)
    Same behavior on both platforms

Description
When Azahar is used in dual-window mode, several hotkeys stop working reliably.

Affected hotkeys

  • Increase Speed Limit
  • Decrease Speed Limit
  • Toggle Per-Application Speed
  • Toggle Turbo Mode

Observed behavior

  • Speed limit increase/decrease hotkeys do not work at all
  • Toggle Per-Application Speed and Toggle Turbo Mode only work if their state is manually changed during the current session
  • After closing and reopening Azahar, the hotkeys stop responding again
  • The issue only occurs in dual-window mode
  • Hotkeys work correctly in single-window mode

Reproduction steps

  1. Launch Azahar
  2. Configure hotkeys for speed limit or turbo mode
  3. Open a game and enable dual-window mode
  4. Try using the hotkeys
  5. Close and relaunch Azahar
  6. Try the hotkeys again → no longer working

Additional notes

  • This behavior did not exist in Lime3DS or Citra
  • Since it happens on both Windows and Linux, it likely relates to window focus or input handling in dual-window mode

I mainly wanted to check whether this issue is already known internally or being tracked, and I’m happy to provide logs if needed 🙂
Thanks again for all the work on Azahar!

Hello @tranquil basin
I saw that a new Azahar alpha was released recently. Do you know if the hotkeys bug in dual-window mode (#1046 / #1716) has been addressed in this build?

No, that is not something that I have gotten to yet.
