Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

When you launch Diner Bros 2, you get to a main game screen where all players should press A to create a character. With the Steam Beta Client on Linux (ONLY), 2 characters pop up with only 1 external controller plugged in.

This happens on desktop and with an external controller plugged into the deck. Only Xbox1 and Xbox series controllers have been tested so far.

This only happens when steam controller input is enabled. This is enabled by default for all controllers for this game. When this is manually disabled for the game, the game only sees the controller as a single input and only one character is created.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

1. Launch Diner Bros 2 (3253150) on Steam Client Beta with Steam Input enabled and external Xbox controller plugged in
2. Press A to get to main game launch screen
3. Press A again to create character - in failing cases, two characters will be created by pressing A 1x with 1 controller
