Curious, does the Xbox Controller turn off after a while if you connect it to the Xbox with an USB cable as well? If not, it may be a workaround to have it connected via USB while you play.
"Wrong. Tried all the Workarounds with batteries, cables, Elite controllers. They ALL shut off after a few minutes. EA needs to fix this problem already!"
"Plugging in with a cable makes no difference. Idle controllers will turn off after a few minutes. No way around it."
@DIRTONAFrook I'm not sure what you are doing or how you are doing it, but having my controller plugged into the console at the same time as my Hotas absolutely solves the issue for me. I have done it with both the OEM and Elite controllers.
That being said, I do have to use the "A" button on the controller when the screen says "Press A to play as Outlaw23V" but that is the only small issue that I have experienced with this setup.
But, I (as does everyone else, I'm sure) do agree with you that EA or MS or whomever, needs to get this fixed!

Did you try a USB Data cable or just a charge cable? If it's the latter, you might want to try the former. I've been using a Data cable on my Xbox One X and the controller doesn't turn off while I play on my HOTAS One.
