Xbox One controllers don't work properly, for example right button is bringing up the start menu and the 3-stripe button doesn't work.

  2. Use the Xbox One controller (bluetooth edition, model starts with 9 can't remember the rest)
  3. Try to play any game, click right-button

Hello @bitshiftnetau, are you using xpadneo? This reads like https://github.com/atar-axis/xpadneo/issues/303.

No I'm not even using xpadneo as it doesn't support this controller. To be clear, it worked fine just before Christmas when using a Linux client to connect to a Windows machine over Remote Play. The timing may or may not be relevant, this may have always been broken on Linux who knows.

Ok I installed xpadneo and it's now fixed. I really hate technology. I hate it so so much...
