Your system information

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

I am using an 8bitdo ultimate 2 (Evernight edition). When using Steam input (whether on the testing screen or in-game), the steam input regularly freezes every 3s for around 1s (by "freeze" I mean that the readings are not updated and just kept at the last read value). This happens for both buttons and analog and regardless of whether it's wired or on 2.4GHz. I have also verified this problem only seems to occur on the dnf version and not on the flatpak version.

I only have 1 controller so I cannot verify whether this problem is specific to 8bitdo or not

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Turn on steam
  2. connect controller
  3. go to "settings"->"controller"->"8bitdo controller"->"begin test"
  4. rotate analog (or otherwise constantly press buttons)
