No vibration with Astro C40? #586

Hi! I just discovered sc-controller. It is working GREAT on Ubuntu 20.04 with Rocket League. However, I am not getting any vibration/rumble from my Astro C40 controller. Any ideas?

Assuming it works as evdev device, is rumble capability recognized by kernel? Is rumble working for example with sdl2-jstest --rumble ?

You'll have to forgive me, I am a linux novice and couldnt figure out how to install sdl2-jstest. when I run fftest it does NOT rumble.

It does work as an evdev device.

In that case it sounds like not even kernel knows about its rumble ability. I'm not sure there is any way to fix that without actually getting hand on one such controller and sniffing ouot commands that are send over USB to enable rumbling.
