Steam gamepad ui not reacting to controller input after beta update (Xbox Elite 2 controller) #10406
Comments
Can confirm. As an aside: when I launch the on-screen keyboard, I do get controller input and I can focus the main window and still use the controller. |
This happens in the latest beta for me with at least a couple controllers I tested (Steam Controller (wireless) and Hyperkin Trooper 2). Button presses properly recognized in game and in the controller button test, but the BPM controls are not functioning as expected with a game controller |
+1 here with a PS5 controller. PS button also does not launch Big Picture Mode anymore. |
+1 here with 8bitdo Lite 2 and 8bitdor Ultimate C Bluetooth |
+1 here with a standard XBox One controller. Additionally, when opening Settings -> Controller -> Calibration & Advanced Settings:
Reverting to the stable client resolves the issue. |
I am unfortunately suffering from the same issue, annoyingly the stable client has an issue with hardware decoding for remote play which seems to be fixed in the beta version. Hopefully the team is aware and a fix is in the works, otherwise has anybody discovered a workaround? |
With today's update the issue has softened a bit. Navigation via left stick is working now but dpad input is still being ignored. |
I have also been experiencing this issue with a DS4 controller when using the beta. The only button that was picked up was the home button |
Manjaro linux, Gnome, Nvidia 3060Ti With steam stable - no problem. |
On Ubuntu, similar to other reports. I can't use my dualsense controller anymore. Steam Beta |
Not sure whether this helps much, but for what it's worth, I've noticed my PS5 controller (connected by USB) works in a Gamescope session without any problems, while continuing to not work in regular non-Gamescope Big Picture mode. The command I'm using for running Steam in Gamescope is

This appears to be fixed in the latest beta. |
Can confirm that my Elite 2 controller is again working in the latest Steam beta release |
How do we know which beta version we are running and when a given beta is released on the "stable" channel? |
You should be able to see the build number and the build date under Settings / System. the build that fixed the issue was the one from yesterday 9pm. As for what goes into the stable branch, I don't know. You probably have to read the release notes to see if this particular fix makes it into a future stable release. |
Thanks. Do you know where the release notes can be found? |

Closing this since the last update fixed the issue for me. Thanks! |
Your system information
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
After latest beta my Microsoft Elite 2 Xbox controller (connected via bluetooth / xpadneo) does not work anymore in gamepad ui. Steam is not reacting to any button or stick input, the only thing that still works is the home button which opens the side menu. When going to Settings/Controller/Test Device Inputs I can see that Steam recognizes button presses or stick movement, but this does trigger menus or control movements in the UI. Tested in Dead Cells and the controller works in-game. Also tested successfully outside Steam (Kodi)
