How to fix Nintendo Switch Pro Controllers from disconnecting randomly.

This is for anyone looking for help with the Pro Controller (one) on Bazzite (probably works on all distros). There's a way so stop Nintendo Switch Controllers from randomly dropping with rumble enabled. If you name the Bluetooth adapter to "Nintendo" (in (KDE) System Settings -> Bluetooth top right Configure...) it will stop disconnecting randomly. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/7631#issuecomment-2819827986 I have tested this for a few hours so far. I will update if I discover anything. (Let me know if I need to move this.)
