I don't often dock my steam deck (have no controller so I'll only use it as a media console) but when I do the only issue I've had was some applications starting in the wrong resolution when in gaming mode.
Otherwise I can't say I could see the issues you're having; I have no issues with sound over HDMI, my mouse and other Bluetooth devices stay connected in desktop and gaming mode.
Have you tried connecting another device (ideally also Linux) through the same dongle to check wether it outputs the sound through the Tv?
What does the AI image have to do with the rest of the comment (or the spoiler warning)?
And was it intended to seem to depict a young girl with semen on her legs?
I hope there is some point I am missing, because that just gives me an ick.
I think you overestimate most people wrt computer knowledge.
Plus sometimes you don't have a choice in what you install. I recently had to install Kind for a class I was taking and their only install options on linux are just that: downloading binaries and moving them to /bin.
Lots of install instructions are based on commands.
If you know what they are doing, you might be able to replace them, but then you already understand them, so...
What do you mean?
I don't think you have to pad the pages or anything like that to make this happen. You just go into the index and add a reference to the same page behind recursion.
