I purchased a brand new Xbox wireless controller. It paired with my steam deck easily but it will not connect and the "X" button on the controller keeps flashing. I've hit every button on the controller and can't get it to actually connect. I've also rebooted the steam deck.

Any help would be appreciated...

Can you connect it to any other device? Can you connect any other controller to Steam Deck?

I also seem to remember having to update the controller before it would work correctly with Steam Deck, if you have Xbox, it should happen automatically, otherwise you need a Windows PC to update it manually.
