Dualsense not working

A few weeks ago, my Dualsense edge controller stopped working. It won’t work over Bluetooth or wired. In gaming mode, it acts as if it paired successfully over Bluetooth, but it won’t appear in steam settings as a controller and button inputs do not work. In desktop mode, trying to pair the controller results in failing to pair successfully.

A regular Dualsense that was never connected to my PC has the exact same issues. Xbox Series controllers work fine when wired.

I tried both the latest stable and testing branches and Dualsense did not work with either.
Solution
I tried rpm-ostree reset and switching to another branch and every other troubleshooting step I could find, but I ended up having to reinstall bazzite to fix this.
