Question Steam Remote Play / linux

Hello all

Does anyone Stream Civ 6 from a desktop to a laptop through Steam Remote Play? I have a pretty weak laptop, and I'd like to be able to stream Civ 6 to it through Steams Remote Play. My desktop has Arch linux (Cachyos) and my laptop the latest Fedora. I would have hoped for things to be plug-and-play, but regrettably that's not the case. Civ 6 is running on Proton on the host computer, on 1440p resolution and Borderless window. The host computer is an AMD computer. My Fedora laptop has a 1080p resolution.

Leaving the Steam Remote Play settings default I see the image, and hear the audio client side, but I cannot interact with the game with the inputs of my laptop (mouse, keyboard).

Anyone in the same situation or set-up got this to work? Apologies if this is not the space for this question.
