Connecting an Xbox One Bluetooth controller to Steam Deck crashes the game past version b2508
I have a Harmonix PlayStation 3 Rock Band Guitar, as well as a Drum Kit set, which both work fine out of the box with the game. I've done initial testing on a standalone Windows PC, but the plan was to move the setup to a Steam Deck. Guitar and drums work as expected, but I wanted a handy way to navigate the menu, as well as a controller for vocals (Star Power button). As soon as I connect my Bluetooth controller via Bluetooth to the Steam Deck, the game crashes to the launcher (very rarely freezes instead). Launching the game while the controller is connected also results in the game showing a single frame (some kind of colorful background? part of the menu, I suppose), and then crashes (or rarely freezes instead).
Works fine on stable, and on nightly up until b2508. Seems that b2509 (https://github.com/YARC-Official/YARG-BleedingEdge/releases/tag/b2509) while adding support for Xbox instruments, broke standard Xbox controllers. Tried several newer nightlies, including the current latest (b2931), and they all present the same issue.
Let me know if there's anything I can share that would help in pinpointing the issue - I'm not quite sure what's gonna help, and navigating the filesystem on the Steam Deck is a pain, so I need to know what to look for.
Can you go to ~/.config/unity3d/YARC/YARG and post the Player.log file here? Hard to say what exactly might be causing this without seeing a crash log.
Here's the requested file and some files around it. Player-prev.log and 2025-03-01_3.log should correspond to a session where I've started the game without the Xbox One controller connected, and only connected it after the game booted up to the menu, while Player.log and 2025-03-01_4.log are logs where I've had the Xbox One controller already connected and then booted the game (both ways causing a crash).
Player-prev.log 2025-03-01_4.log 2025-03-01_3.log settings.json Player.log
Hmmm, this crash has been reported in the past, but I wasn't really able to do anything about it, since it happening in the first place makes absolutely no sense to me lol, and I wasn't able to reproduce it on my Linux setup. I'll take another look into this and see if I can replicate and trace the cause.
Some technical details: there's a double-free happening inside of libudev when trying to retrieve the revision number of the Xbox One controller, something is causing the udev_enumerate handle created as part of retrieving that to get freed earlier than expected. I've inspected the code top-to-bottom several times and don't see an obvious reason as to why this would be the case, and at this point I suspect it's getting tied to another handle behind-the-scenes.
There's a bandage-patch fix for the crash here, but I've been hesitant on merging it until I can isolate the root cause and determine for sure that it won't cause handle leaks on setups where it doesn't currently crash.
tl;dr you've come across a big-pain-in-the-butt issue lol
For what it's worth, as a developer myself, I'd gladly help with debugging the issue, but I think I'd be limited to only testing various builds (be it actual attempted fixes or just builds with extra logs). Setting up a proper development environment on a Steam Deck would be a bit too much for me, hah.
Noticing that this also occurs with DualSense controllers, for some reason.

As a sidenote, on Linux it's always hid, santroller never uses xinput for linux
I know thenathannator isn't ready to merge that PR until he understands what the underlying issue is, but FWIW: I built YARG against it and it plays great with my Santroller-modded Jaguar.
The same is happening here! Wii remote through Bluetooth on Debian 12
Same here. Wii remote connected via Bluetooth will crash YARG on startup after the initial startup screen. I'm on the Steam Deck using the latest stable YARG release (v0.13.0). Disconnecting the Wii remote in Bluetooth settings will allow YARG to startup and be played normally.
As an alternative, I tried YARG 0.13.0 Windows portable version on my Steam Deck using Proton Experimental and it does NOT crash when having my Wii remote connected via Bluetooth. I'm able to bind the Wii guitar controller buttons and play properly using this method. Steam Input is also disabled in the Steam game properties. Unfortunately, using the Proton version causes issues connecting other instruments (e.g. USB drum set, etc.) as everything is detected as an Xbox Controller.
Can confirm that the windows portable version works, however with my PolyBar controller (Santroller), the tilt sensor isn't recognised, so star power is... difficult to activate with the select button.
