PS5 controller use with Steamdeck

Hello all - new Steamdeck owner here. I also own a PS5 and had been wanting to stream to my deck.

I learned about Chiaki4deck and did the install this weekend and was up and running playing games within a few minutes. However, I am still having a few issues getting the Touchpad on my PS5 controller to work right.

The controller works fine with that one exception.

I have a few games that really utilize the pad - is there something that can be done on the Deck side help with compatibility?

Edit: just resolved the issue thanks to @PlasticExistence@lemmy.world: the firmware on the controller I was trying to use had not been updated. Once I did the issue resolved itself.

Thanks all for the suggestions and help

I’m on Plasma, my issue has always been getting the Bluetooth to function properly. bluez-util just won’t sync with it consistently.

  Had the same issue on newer versions of bluez-utils. Downgrading it to 5.6x fixed my issues.
