Xbox One controller "A" button input not working!!

Hi Kathy,

I just bought a controller today and ran into the same issues - I have some input that may help. I downloaded an app that tracks my keystrokes to see exactly what inputs the controller is sending. Both the Xbox Guide Button and A button are sending the following MOUSE inputs:

LButton (left mouse button)
XButton2 (second "extra" mouse button)

It's interesting because it's not actually behaving as if I'm pressing either of those buttons, but for some reason both Steam and Xbox Game Bar were responding as if I pressed the Xbox Guide button. I turned off both the Game Bar and Steam and the controller is working as expected, BUT every time I press the A button, all my on-screen button icons change to mouse/keyboard inputs because the LButton and XButton2 inputs are mouse inputs. An improvement, but still annoying.

I hope this helps you and the team crack the issue!

Okay, and thank you for the translation I appreciate your efforts. Let's try and confront piece by piece to see if we can find a solution, if something works then it will let me know that it could pinpoint the software issue.

For steam I found this thread on their support forums: Controller Double Tapping :: Help and Tips (steamcommunity.com) where most users experiecing this problem comments that it may be the configurator. The suggestions are:

"Under controller configuration, select the setting for the A button (or the button having issues), under activator type, give a minimum value (non zero) to fire end delay and it should fix this."

"- Right-click the game having issues
- Go to Manage > Controller Configuration
- Click the Y/X/B/A button group, bottom right corner for me
- Click the A button
- Add just a tiny bit to the slider for Fire End Delay
- Click Back, Back, Done
- Enjoy"

For Batman: Arkham Asylum/City, try these and see if it eliminates the double press issue.

For later reference I will post these for review to see if anything helps us out here:

What has happened is the main power board on the controller is going out have had several of these come through my shop all are non repairable

Yes this has happened to one of my controllers as well!!!! When I press the A button on the xbox it makes a sound (!?!?!) HOWEVER, it does not respond. Example: I have a game loaded in the tray and I'm on the xbox home screen, I hover over my game and press
A to start playing. The xbox will make the chime noise as it would when you press A except it does not start the game. It just makes the sound but does not perform the function. How is this even possible? And YES i have my controller updated with the latest
software. It has been persistent in the last two updates. The A button will perform the button ONLY after spamming it for about 7-10 presses. Yeah, thats kind of a big deal. Please fix this software issue. dont even get me started about the joy sticks. those
things are junk and i have to keep getting new controllers. Please.
