Here i can only make my swich pro controller "to work" on dead cells, the gamepad is not seen Hollow knight, everspace, Dirt rally, Salt and sanctuary, Witcher III ( proton ) and others ... The gamepad is properly detected into steam configuration interface as Nintendo switch pro controller and i can navigate into big pictures interface without any problem but most part of my games just don't see it.
Should mention that I installed updated udev rules from steam-devices for my pro controller to even work with steam. Used the debian buster package and put it on on hold to stop it downgrading.
https://packages.debian.org/buster/steam-devices
sudo apt-mark hold steam-devices
Bionic repo is pretty outdated now.

(native) doesn't detect the controller at all
(proton) works, but glitch-y, no rumble as far as I can tell
I'm having the same issue on Arch Linux with Steam. I tried Steam Beta and downgraded to non-beta Steam and still the issue persists. The OS and Steam Big Picture recognize the controller, but when I try to get into a game the switch controller won't be recognized. I don't remember but recently it did work just fine.
Hello @cuevasclemente, you may be encountering https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/13553.
Sorry to wake up an old thread, but I'm running into the same issue today.
systemd 245.4, so systemd/systemd#13553 should have been fixed)The Switch Pro controller is recognised by Steam and works perfectly in big picture mode, but is basically unusable in-game.
I'm having the same problem but with an Xbox One S controller. The games I'm having problems with are: Dead Cells, OutLast and Source games except L4D2.

Your system information
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
Switch Pro controller compatibility with steam input only works in some games. I've tested some Linux/Windows (proton) "Full controller support" titles according to their steam page. All games use the default gamepad configuration to act as a xbox pad. I've found that some native linux games don't detected the gamepad but running the game through proton is a work around.
Native Linux Games:
[Native] Axiom Verge: Working fine.
[Native] Dirt Rally: Working fine.
[Native + Proton] LIMBO: Linux version doesn't detect controller, Proton version does.
[Native + Proton] Slain - Back from Hell: Linux version doesn't detect controller, Proton version does.
Windows/Proton Games:
Grand Theft Auto V: Working fine.
Sonic Mania: Working fine.
Cuphead: No controller detected.
Rayman Origins: No controller detected.
