Bluetooth is refusing to work

So the USB system works 100% fine, but trying to get my pro controller to work with bluetooth is impossible.

It says that it has connected through bluetooth, but it is not recognized as an input device of any kind. My controller works if I open up steam, but steam uses it's own input driver system of course.

I can confidentially say that hid_nintendo has a problem with bluetooth.

EDIT: I realized that I should specify that I am using the gullikit king kong pro 2 controller in switch mode

here is the dmesg:

yeah I'm getting the exact same issue. looking at the driver it seems to be timing out waiting for a sub command to run.

I'm also using an non-official nintendo controller (8bitdo Pro 2 Controller)

So it seems our problems are a duplicate of another issue here, there is a workaround:

https://github.com/DanielOgorchock/linux/issues/10#issuecomment-1321074341

but I have not tried it myself.

No this is a separate issue I'm pretty sure the vendor id and product id is correct for the king long 2 controller it copies Nintendo's official ones.

Could you post then your dmesg?
