What were you doing when the bug occurred? Step by Step detail is helpful. I was looking around the briefing room, when suddenly the button dialogs switched between controller buttons and joystick button numbers. As a result, the controller inputs no longer work, and tried to map them to flight stick commands.
Where did this issue occur? Please include menu name or in game location. When I enter the quick match mode most notably. I got through the story missions without problem so far, but when I enter a quick match, that's when the game has diffiiculties registering the controller as a PS4 controller.

How severe is your issue? Can play, but it's highly frustrating
What happens when the bug occurs? I plug in my PS4 controller to play Squadrons with. It works fine on the main story mode, but when I enter the quick match mode, the game has difficulty picking up the controller, and thinks I'm using a flight stick, completely remapping all of my controls. On the briefing page, it has trouble and switches between the two after a while, and when the battle starts, it completely switches to a flight stick.
What do you expect to see? The PS4 controller to work just fine.
Which ship were you playing? If not applicable, just answer "no" or "none." none
What components were you using? Playing Squadrons through Origin PS4 Controller
Which customizations (if any) were you using? ' none
Additional Details
Right now to work around this, I am running Squadrons through steam as that detects what the PS4 controller is more accurately.
