Not compatible with PS5 joystick

[Woz4tetra]

I've been trying to get this node to work with a PS5 controller with no luck. I was getting an error that no joystick with name /dev/input/js0 was found. I've confirmed that this joystick works using the jstest utility. It also works with the ROS1 version of this node. I realized that device name isn't device path. What it wanted me to put was Sony Interactive Entertainment Wireless Controller. That worked for one run, but after rebooting, now nothing works. I don't get any kind of error messages about no devices found or anything. It's almost like the joystick node is suppressing logs despite me setting the log level to debug in the launch. Not sure what to try next.

Sorry it took a long time to get to helping here. Are you still seeing this issue? Still interested in trying to fix it? If so, I need at least:

• Version of ROS
• joystick_drivers built from source or installed from Debs?
• Which version?
• When you plug the PS5 controller in, does a device show up under /dev/input/js0 or is there no jsX device there?
