Xbox One X Controller doesn't obey Steam sleep settings
questionbug
Hello, I've had a search around and I don't think I've been able to find anything about this - I'm using an Xbox Series X controller paired via 2.4ghz using the older Xbox dongle, the bigger one. The controller works great, other than the fact that it doesn't obey Steam's setting to put the controller to sleep after 15 minutes of inactivity, and just stays on permanently until the system is shut down or I hold the Xbox button to power the controller off. Not the end of the world, but mildly annoying! Is this a known issue with a fix?
I'm using Bazzite Deck F43.20260212, on my desktop PC. I've tried the dongle in a few different USB ports, no change in behaviour.

Solution
this setting only actually works with controllers that listen to the turn off command
