Controller stopped working on Xbox

Howdy,   I downloaded Battlefront 2 the other day through Xbox Game Pass (which took me through the EA launcher that's in Beta). When I first opened the game through the EA launcher, I had no prob...

    I just tried a little experiment. It looks like if the controller is off when I open the game, then I turn it on as it's loading, it works fine. If the controller is on before I click to open the game on my desktop, however, the controller blinks a couple of times as the game's opening and doesn't work. Not really sure why that is, but now I know to just turn the controller on after clicking to open the game. I think we're good! Thanks!

Yeah, that seems to be the case. It worked the first time I played, then it only worked in the home menu of the game, and now it doesn't work at all. I've only had this problem with SWBF2.

@westonninja, gotcha. Apart from the Xbox Game Bar overlay, is there another overlay that you're using? Like Nvidia, Discord, Logitech etc.? If so, please disable those, make sure that all non-essential (so everything except K&M and the controller) is disconnected from your PC and check if you're still having the issue please.

      Happy gaming!
