Not exactly sure how the problem was caused, I resolved this problem by:
Now the controller works again as expected
Sorry for the noise
Yeah, there seem to have been some Bluetooth updates in the kernel for 5.9, and then some fixes were applied on top and only those fixes were backported to older kernels. Two of them handle a fix in establishing the encrypted channel, and that seems to be one of the problematic/weak areas of the Xbox controller.
So we may conclude that the last kernel updates to 5.4 and 5.8 may have broken Xbox Controller compatibility. It still works for me in 5.4, tho.
Version of xpadneo
xpadneo: v0.8-29-gd55e6d4!
Severity / Impact
Describe the bug
Using the wireless xbox one controller, was successfully using xpadneo for about 2 months until a recent system upgrade.
The device seems to be connected (light stays turned on and the bluetooth panel shows the device is connected), however there is no rumble at the time of connection and the games don't actually seem to pick it up. Checking it in steam.
Steps to Reproduce
I go through my usual connection process:
Expected behavior
I expect to feel the rumble when the device is connected and see the device picked up in steam and in game.

Additional context
I hope this is not a duplicate, the tickets I saw already report the game pad is not connected (light stays pulsing) or gets disconnected right after being connected.
