In the game's page, right before launching it, there's a section with "DLC installed". This menu does not respond to the Xbox 360 button, it only plays an 'error/wrong button' sound. I am unable to get this menu to work with the controller, it only responds to mouse clicks.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

hello @kisak-valve, can you please advise whether this issue is being tracked internally?

I went through great effort to properly document and record this bug (and #5138 too) and I found a lot more bugs that aren't exactly critical or system breaking, but do impact the overall user experience and quality of life on Steam(OS). It isn't motivating to continue testing if my contributions still haven't been picked up after a year.

Hello @littlegamer87, are you still experiencing this issue on an up to date system?

Hello @kisak-valve
I can confirm that the little DLC menu now does respond to button presses. Now it is possible to install/remove DLC with a controller, but there is also a "Done" button below that does not respond to anything. You can workaround it by pressing the B button to cancel the DLC menu, but I wouldn't check this off just yet.

I also retested #5138 and this bug still exist
