As far as I understand, (and I don’t know what you mean by big picture mode, so I’ll just assume you mean fullscreen mode) you are trying to launch a program with a fullscreen window while running another program, which already has a fullscreen window. By default i3 prevents that, as usually when you make a window fullscreen, this means you want to completely focus on it, and anything that tries to steal that focus is inhibited. However, this behaviour can be changed. For details, see: http://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#_popups_during_fullscreen_mode -- Mateusz Poszwa
