xbox controler not connecting via bluetooth

i just installed bazzite on my desktop, coming from linux mint. my xbox controler worked fine there, but here it isnt detected. my BT chip is the intel ax200. i have a bluetooth headset i use and it works fine. i just updated the controler firmware via microsoft on laptop thats running windows. no change. when i pair the controler it just hangs there and then evently shuts off before the pc can find it.

i belive that when i plug the controler in via usb it works properly.
Solution
i have a pair of (old) usb bluetooth dongles that i know work for everything i own and i use those over the ones embedded in the wifi card on my newer motherboards (also because i am lazy and dont want to re-pair about 40+ controllers πŸ˜… )
