I’m having an issue with my Xbox controller on my Lenovo Legion Go.

Windows sees the controller, Steam sees it, and the controller test in Steam works fine. The problem is that when I launch certain games, the game either doesn’t pick up the Xbox controller or seems to default to the Legion Go’s built-in controls instead.

I tried looking for a controller reorder option in Steam/Big Picture Mode, but I couldn’t get that to fix it. I’m wondering if the Legion Go’s built-in controller is being treated as Player 1 and causing the Xbox controller to not work correctly in-game.

Has anyone else run into this on the Legion Go? Is there a reliable way to force Steam or Windows to make the Xbox controller Player 1, or disable the Legion Go controls temporarily while docked/using an external controller?

Any help would be appreciated.

So I recently disabled the PIN/password requirement to log into my Legion Go. Not sure if it’s related, but right after doing that, State of Decay 2 started asking me to sign into Xbox every time before launching.

The weird part is my Xbox app is already logged in and looks completely fine, so I’m not sure what changed.

Has anyone else run into this or know a fix?
