Stadia controller not reconnecting - eviltoast

Hello,

I purchased two Stadia controllers to connect with my Stream Deck via Bluetooth. While one functions as expected, the other presents an issue.

Here’s the sequence of events:

  • Initially paired the controller with the Stream Deck, and it worked.
  • Turned off the Stream Deck and turned it back on.
  • Unable to connect the controller to the Stream Deck, both automatically and manually.
  • Only after removing the second controller from the Bluetooth devices, I can pair it again (and it works until I suspend the Deck again).

Does anyone have any insights into what might have gone wrong? The other controller is functioning correctly, leading me to suspect an issue with the second controller.

    This does not happen to me often (I have 3 Stadia controllers), but when it does, I just flip BT off and on, and then it works. I’ve seen that it’s more likely to happen when I switch controllers (long gaming sessions and needing to charge), but it could also just be a coincidence.
