My wife has been looking for a way to stream Civ 6 to another computer (from our HTPC) and she just bought a new iPad thinking it would work, but apparently the touchscreen doesn't work when streaming a steam game. Pairing a controller would be pointless for a game like Civ, so we're trying to figure out why the touch won't work for the game. Is there a steam setting?

I don't think Steam games support touch input for remote play. The full Civ VI game is available on iOS with excellent touch control if the goal is to play on an iPad. Worth the investment.

She already has Civ 6 on steam with all the DLC, we're not re-buying.

We'll return the iPad and try something else.
