1 year ago I'm seeing same with an older Steam controller on Ubuntu 22.10 with STK 1.4 download from main site (not flatpak).
I was specifically looking for help remapping acceleration as I much prefer having that on a dedicated button rather then holding thumbstick up while also using thumbstick to steer.

Description
Playing the game with a PS5 dualsense controller, and I can change the configuration of most actions, but steering, braking and accelerating are always bound to the D pad and the left analog stick. I can set steering, braking, and accelerating to None in the control mapping screen in the options menu, and the controls will still be bound to that pad.
Also, if I try to bind the accelerator to the (analog) right trigger, it either registers as a button, or as "Axis 5 (inverted)" I don't seem to be able to get it registered to "Axis 5" normally.
Steps to reproduce
Attach a Playstation 5 controller to a Linux PC Launch SuperTuxKart Bind the controls to "none" in the options menu Start a race; the controls still work. Bind the controls to other axes or buttons, the left stick and D pad still accelerate, brake, and steer.
Configuration
STK release version:
STK Source (PPA, distribution package, official binary, etc.):
