[Bug] Crash on certain menu buttons (1.21.9)

[ViriVanilla]

Current Behaviour

On certain menu buttons that cycle between different options, such as the difficulty on the world creation screen, the game crashes when using a controller.
I have tested this with 2 different controllers (Steam Deck, and Nintendo Switch Pro Controller).

Expected Behaviour

The game should not crash and instead should cycle through the menu option as normal like with mouse and keyboard.

Screenshots

No response

Reproduction Steps

1. Start Game
2. Go to any menu button that cycles through different options
3. With controller, press the button. The game will instantly crash.

Mod Version

2.4.1 for fabric 1.21.10-rc1

Controller

Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, Steam Deck

Bluetooth

• Yes

Operating System

Windows

ARM

• Yes

Additional Information

If it is conflicting with any other mods, here is the list of mods I am using (not including Controlify and it's dependencies):
Fabric API
Fabric Language Kotlin
ImmediatelyFast
Iris
Sodium
Zoomify

Just to make sure...

• I have made sure I am using the latest version of Controlify for the latest version of Minecraft.
• I have made sure there are no other issues describing the same problem on the issue tracker.

[sonic-veemo]

Can reproduce on Fabric with just Controlify and Fabric API installed and an Xbox One controller over Bluetooth on Vanilla OS via Prism Launcher's flatpak. Additionally, the NeoForge version outright fails to launch.

[Raphdf201]

Happens on Debian 12 with gnome and xbox wired controller too (1.21.6)

[baebypowder]

I have this issue on my Steam Deck running SteamOS with ANY version of Minecraft(tried 1.21.1-1.21.10) on Fabric

[jefftheev]

Same, I have this issue too

[isXander]
