Bug description

My controller has lost vibration functionality and some games are seeing it as a mouse and keyboard (Assetto Corsa Rally).

Sometimes it is being picked up as the wrong model as well - its a Gamesir G7 Pro but sometimes comes up as a kaleid model.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Turn controller on
  2. Try any game with vibration
  3. Check controller in system settings

Expected behavior

  1. Games will have vibration through controller
  2. Games will treat it as a controller not mouse and keyboard

Actual behavior

  1. No vibration in any games
  2. Some games treat controller as mouse and keyboard
