Black or deformed Screen in Unity Editor (not in build)

[benjaminSponagel]

When I press play within the Unity Editor, I get one of three possible outcomes:

1. Game View is black
   

2. Game View is distorted
   

3. Game View is as expected
   

XR Plug-in Management Settings are as following:

This was tested in different new and empty project usings 2020.1.15f1 and 2020.3.8f1. I created a total of 6 empty projects, with HDRP, URP, and Legacy Rendering for each Unity Version respectively. Same results in all projects.

We're using the SteamVR Plugin from the AssetStore, and this was tested in the Simple Sample Scene provided by the SteamVR Plugin.

How can we make it so that we have reliable visual output in Game View? (3. Game View is as expected)

You found no pattern in your tests of the different rendering pipelines?

I ran into the same problem and couldn't solve it
