Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/PlayCover/PlayCover/issues/1068

Describe the bug

System: Mac OS Ventura, 13.5 (22G74)
PlayCover build: 3.0.0 Beta

I'm using a DualSense Controller.

Any controller input in the menu of any game crashes the game.
Tested with Azur Lane (for the sake of testing) and Honkai Star Rail.
Update: However, after trying 5-10 times, it doesn't crash with every instance now. Really weird. It seems like the beta builds still have issues with controllers.

Steps to reproduce

(most) Examples for Star Rail:

in the menu

Press any button -> Game crashes
Move a stick -> Game crashes

in-game

pressing touchpad can also crash the game

Expected behaviour

Controller should be detected and working as intended. I have to manually select the controller settings in HSR.

Crash log

No response

What version of PlayCover are you using?

Nightly/beta

What version of macOS are you using?

Ventura (macOS 13)

Issue Language

Yes my issue is written in English

Right click the game -> settings -> disable/uncheck keymapping
That’ll fix the issue

Same behaviour on a different game (HI3), disabling keymapping fixed it.
