Description

The toggle is inoperable. I'm using the Steam Families Beta via

```PS1
flatpak install 'https://dl.flathub.org/repo/appstream/com.valvesoftware.Steam.flatpakref' &&`
flatpak update 'app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/x86_64/stable' --commit=98f034b154eed70b957bedcba0a5ce3785e70999b4aef85e1f6dd66f2eb15ff7
```

As the content of https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/10509#issue-2140567457 demonstrates, this functionality should be available on Linux.
