I purchased a brand new Xbox wireless controller. It paired with my steam deck easily but it will not connect and the "X" button on the controller keeps flashing. I've hit every button on the controller and can't get it to actually connect. I've also rebooted the steam deck.

Any help would be appreciated...

on my fedora pc i actually Had to use xpadneo to get my xbox (Elite 2) controller working via bluetooth. before i did that, it would connect and show up in buetooth but wouldnt work and not be recognized by steam. but keep in mind i did this on a pc with fedora and not a deck so it might not work
