@flipside101: I also own a Shield TV and this is a Shield specific issue caused by a system modification by Nvidia. Please read my comment to fix this:

Awesome! Thank you for the response and detailed information. I had searched before posting but did it on the view button as that's what it's called using the newer controller forgetting that it was also called the select button in the past.

@flipside101: I’m happy that I was able to help. I also got this information from a user here. =)

Yes, the “View“ button is like Microsoft calls the left side button on Xbox Controllers. But connected over Bluetooth to an Android device, it acts like the “Select” button. Microsoft also calls the right side button the “Menu” button. But on Android it acts like the “Start” button. It’s really confusing sometimes.

But Nvidia’s modification makes the left side button on controllers react like Android’s “Back” button and the middle button like “Home”. It seems that “real” apps can override this, but it causes problems when using xCloud in a web browser or WebView (like with the BXC app).

I suspect that the button mapping problems on some Fire TV devices have a similar reason. That Amazon has done a similar modification on those devices. But I don’t know how this could be disabled on Fire OS.
