So it's definitely that screen that is screwing things up in some way. Steam Link : Before connecting to your host machine, select Settings -> Streaming -> Audio -> Speaker Configuration Steam Client : Select Steam menu -> Remote Play -> Advanced Client Options -> Speaker Configuration What 5.1 audio can Steam record Steam currently only records 5.1 audio from processes launched through Steam on Windows. If I hack the Win 10 host registry to prevent the lock screen overlay image from appearing, I have no trouble. If I walk to the host PC and hit a key or click the mouse to slide away the lock screen image, the login screen suddenly appears on my streaming device and my kbd/mouse work. When I use ANY of those to try connect to my (locked) Win 10 host PC, I get a black screen with mouse cursor, but my local input devices (kbd/mouse/touch) do not work at all. I don't have a Steam Link but I do use in-home streaming, and have just installed the Steam Link app on both my Nvidia Shield TV and my Galaxy S8+ phone. "Added support for connecting to locked Windows computers, as long as Steam is running and you have access to a keyboard." Somehow I missed it in beta but I just noticed that the latest official Steam Client update includes a LONG OVERDUE feature under "Steam Link and In-Home Streaming": TL DR: Can't get to the login screen of a locked PC from the Steam Link app unless the lock screen is dismissed at the host PC by clicking or hitting a key.
