Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when ...
Due to emulated profile switching on Xbox One S and Xbox Series controllers, applications such as Steam cannot detect key combos.
For example, Xbox button + A brings up the Quick access menu, Xbox button + X brings up the on screen keyboard in Steam's Gamepad UI.
This functionality does not work with xpadneo because of the profile switching functionality which appears to completely swallow the events when I tested with evtest. These key combos do work with the kernel's xpad driver.
Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.
Since the profile switching feature is unfinished and non-functional, I propose that it be disabled by default and perhaps enabled with a configuration option.
In the xpadneo code, the section starting on line 922 of hid-xpadneo/src/hid-xpadneo.c seems to be related.
I suspect disabling that section of code would enable key combos. There does not appear to be an existing configuration option to turn this feature off.
