Unexpected behavior by TypeError in query_xinput method

Software Versions

• Python: 3.9.18
• OS: Ubuntu 22.04
• Kivy: 2.3.0
• Kivy installation method: pip install

Describe the bug
I found a potential unexpected behavior due to a TypeError between str and bytes in query_xinput function.

kivy/kivy/input/providers/probesysfs.py

Lines 116 to 136 in c0d4894

	def query_xinput():
	global _cache_xinput
	if _cache_xinput is None:
	_cache_xinput = []
	devids = getout('xinput', '--list', '--id-only')
	for did in devids.splitlines():
	devprops = getout('xinput', '--list-props', did)
	evpath = None
	for prop in devprops.splitlines():
	prop = prop.strip()
	if (prop.startswith(b'Device Enabled') and
	prop.endswith(b'0')):
	evpath = None
	break
	if prop.startswith(b'Device Node'):
	try:
	evpath = prop.split('"')[1]
	except Exception:
	evpath = None
	if evpath:
	_cache_xinput.append(evpath)

The variable prop is bytes type, but this code is trying to split it using string type, such as prop.split('"')[1] at line 132.
This always raise TypeError, so evpath is always None type when prop.startswith(b'Device Node') is true.
I believe it is a miss point when supporting Python 3.x (related issue #3373 and pr #3417).

Expected behavior
prop.split(b'"')[1]

To Reproduce
I regret to say that I can't reproduce this error because I found this bug through my type checker.
Nevertheless, I report this issue because I think it is the miss point when changing string to bytes.
If this is not indeed a bug, I apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Thank you.
