Steam Link - XBOX 360 Controller Issues #5942

Open erikrenner opened 5 years ago

erikrenner commented 5 years ago

I reimaged my raspberry pi with RetroPie 4.4 with Stretch. I have Steam running on my PC and Steam Link running on my pi. I am trying to use my XBOX 360 wireless controller, and wireless receiver (plugged into the pi), to play games via Steam Link. I can navigate through everything, but when I launch a game my controller no longer works...even with games that you can use a controller for. I have no idea how to fix this. Does anyone know what may be going on here, or what I need to do to fix it? Once I launch a game, I can no longer use my 360 controller to play the game. I can only navigate with a keyboard/mouse.

Hello @erikrenner, on the host system, please copy your system information from steam (Steam -> Help -> System Information) and put it in a gist, then include a link to the gist in this issue report.

If you're using Ubuntu, you may need the steam-devices package.

I'm experiencing the same behavior with the real Steam Link device. I can't get my wireless XBOX 360 controller to work within games. The controller works on the Steam Link menu, and in Steam Big Picture Mode, but as soon as I launch a game it doesn't work. The Steam Overlay button works. If I hold down the Special Button and use the right joy stick, the mouse and click via right trigger works, but none of the normal buttons.

I use this same controller on my PC using the wireless dongle and it works on most games just fine. I've tested every setting I can think of:

Installing steam-devices appears to have done the trick on my system. My current settings are:

I’m unsure if any of these can be toggled, but I’m not going to make any changes for now since it’s finally working. Thanks for the suggestion!

I'm having the same issue on Fedora 29 and using Steam Link app on my Samsung TV. I can use my XBOX 360 controller on my computer, but it doesn't work when I'm streaming a game. The Steam overlay does however work. I've tried the beta Steam client, but that didn't solve the issue.
