Your system information

  • Steam client version (build number or date): 1670284449
  • Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): SteamOS 3.3.2
  • Opted into Steam client beta?: No
  • Have you checked for system updates?: Yes

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

When using the combined yaw and roll mode for the gyro of an external controller (either dualsense or steam controller) connected to the Steam Deck one of the axis is reversed while the other is not. This makes the combined axis mode unusable since the controller movement simply doesn't make sense. Since it's only possible to invert the mapped horizontal axis and not yaw or roll individually there's currently no way to use the combined mode.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Connect an external controller with gyro to the Steam Deck
  2. Setup gyro as joystick
  3. Set the Gyro Steering Axis to Combined Yaw & Roll
  4. Try to aim
