Your system information

Steam Beta Branch: Steam Deck Stable Steam Version: 1748914100 Steam Client Build Date: Wed, May 28 22:31 UTC -08:00 Steam Web Build Date: Tue, Jun 3 03:16 UTC -08:00 Steam API Version: SteamClient022

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Today I swapped my Sabrent Docking Station (https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0CFCXJ7DY?th=1) with a brand new Steam Deck Dock. I was using my sabrent dock with my Xbox Wirless Controller connected via USB A to C basically to save my batteries vom dying all the time and that worked pretty great. After swapping the docks it stopped working. The controller somehow is still detected in the settings and also the virtual buttons in gaming mode are the right color / type but there's no input. No matter what I clicked.

I even just updated the docks firmware.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Use Sabrent dock with Xbox Wireless Controller via USB cable. Should work,
  2. Use Valve dock with Xbox Wireless Controller via USB cable. Should not work.
