Here's the case. I play minecraft with a keyboard, and uses my controller to open QAM and Steam Menu. However, the controller turns of after beeing inactive for a while (which is expected)
However, when I try to reconnect it, it vibrates as if it's connected, the light lights up as they should, but it isn't really connected. I can't use it, and after just a few seconds, the controller shuts off. The only way to get it to reconnect is if I restart the whole PC, or go into sleep mode and out again. Switching to Desktopmode doesn't work.
I can't seem to see if it is consistent, as sometimes it works, but mostly it doesn't. My controller is the 8bitdo ultimate, used in 2.4ghz mode. I have also tried with a bunch of xbox 360 controllers (with the official pc-adaptor), but they won't work as well.
The case there is that even if it is the 8bitdo controller that shuts off and fails to reconnect, the Xbox controllers won't connect either.
I do also have a 8bitdo pro +, which is bluetooth, and it works just as expected.
To sum up:
2.4ghz controllers won't reconnect after turning off
I've tested both the 8bitdo ultimate and a couple of xbox 360 controllers
Only fix is to restart pc/go into sleep mode and out again
Bluetooth controllers still works as they should
