Currently, if you have SteamVR Overlay enabled in VRCX and start VRChat in desktop mode, VRCX starts its internal SteamVR overlay driver which causes SteamVR to start up. This patch makes VRCX check if VRChat is running and whether it's currently running in VR or desktop mode before starting up the internal overlay driver.
