I do have to ask, when you say "bother setting up the headset", is yours not just a "put it on and launch the game". What sort of set up?
I have to take my glasses off, put the headset on, probably adjust the fit, launch virtual desktop, then usually steamvr, and then launch the game. It's not an elaborate or complicated process, but it's certainly more involved than pressing a single button. Doesn't help that, specifically with ETS, I sometimes have difficulties even getting it to work properly.
Run it with Virtual desktops VDXR runtime. Not only does it run better, but it skips a step in your setup time. No need to have SteamVR running at all. Euro truck sim had a bug 2 patches ago that was messing with VR, their menu redesign also fixed it. If your truck sim games aren't showing up in VD's game launch tab, use the -openVR launch command instead of -Oculus launch command. That should populate it in that list.
