Keyboard is detected as a virtual device instead of physical

[JaviWalker]

Describe the Bug

Virtual mice are correctly detected as physical devices, and that works perfectly. However, the problem is with the keyboard: it is still being detected as a virtual device.
Experienced this when comparing the behavior to older versions of Sunshine. I am testing this using Nucleus Coop.

Can you provide more info?

• OS
• What specific older version of Sunshine?
• If Windows, what version of Virtual HID Driver is installed?
• What version of Sunshine is installed?

[JaviWalker]

Here is the requested information:

OS: Windows 11 23H2

Older version of Sunshine: 2026.516.143833

Virtual HID Driver version: 2026.824.1240.30

Current version of Sunshine: 2026.824.30334

As an additional note: the Virtual HID Driver shows "Active Virtual HID Devices = 1". I assume this refers only to the mouse, and it should be 2 (for both the mouse and keyboard)?

The keyboard isn't created through the driver and it never was. I believe it behaves exactly the same as Sunshine v2026.516.143833 ?

I will look into this for the future, but right now I think everything is working as intended.

It requires changes in Sunshine which I haven't published yet.
